GitHub star RSS is disabled due to the lack of <a href="http

Error message

GitHub star RSS is disabled due to the lack of <a href="https://docs.rsshub.app/deploy/config#route-specific-configurations">relevant config</a>

What it means

Thrown as a ConfigNotFoundError by the GitHub Stars route when config.github.access_token is not set. The route uses the GitHub GraphQL API to list users who starred a repository, which requires authentication. The guard is identical to the other GitHub routes.

Solutions

1. Set GITHUB_ACCESS_TOKEN to a valid GitHub personal access token
2. If using docker-compose, ensure the env var is listed under the service's environment or env_file
3. Confirm the token is valid by testing 'curl -H "Authorization: bearer ghp_xxx" https://api.github.com/graphql'
4. Restart RSSHub after configuration changes

Example fix

// Configuration fix:
// Set GITHUB_ACCESS_TOKEN=ghp_your_token and restart RSSHub

// Pre-flight check for GitHub token
if (!config.github?.access_token) {
    throw new ConfigNotFoundError('GITHUB_ACCESS_TOKEN is required for GitHub star feeds');
}

function hasGitHubToken(cfg: typeof config): cfg is typeof config & { github: { access_token: string } } {
    return !!cfg.github?.access_token;
}

When it happens

Trigger: Any request to /github/:user/:repo/stars (or the stargazers route) when GITHUB_ACCESS_TOKEN is not configured. The GraphQL stargazers query requires authentication.

Common situations: RSSHub deployed without GITHUB_ACCESS_TOKEN; token revoked; env var not passed through in container orchestration (Kubernetes secret, Docker Compose env_file mismatch).
