GitHub CLI 2.88.1
pr commands failing with read:project scope errorv2.88.0 introduced a regression where pr commands would fail with the error:
error: your authentication token is missing required scopes [read:project]
To request it, run: gh auth refresh -s read:project
Previously, missing read:project scope was gracefully handled, and project data was silently skipped. A change inadvertently broke the error matching that enabled this graceful degradation. v2.88.1 reverts these changes so that pr commands work correctly without requiring the read:project scope.
