* This method is intended for use with commands that accept a `--github-auth-stdin` argument. This
* will be added to the command line arguments automatically if an access token is available.
*
* When the argument is given to the command, the CLI server will prompt for the access token on
* stdin. This method will automatically respond to the prompt with the access token.
*
* There are a few race conditions that can potentially happen:
* 1. The user logs in after the command has started. In this case, no access token will be given.
* 2. The user logs out after the command has started. In this case, the user will be prompted
* to login again. If they cancel the login, the old access token that was present before the
* command was started will be used.
