These are used by the github bot, for example: https://github.com/matrix-org/matrix-react-sdk/blob/eadd6192e819ee717e194e0f5adcc854e1dad78f/src/components/views/messages/TextualBody.js#L217-L253

This will be harder than expected. The starter link for github is https://scalar.vector.im/api/integrations/github/oauth, and riot just appends the scalar token to the url, so we can't force scalar to use a token we may know about.

Instead, a possible patch to riot may be needed, or an alternative for the bot to support.

Starter links don't seem possible without upstream changes to Riot. Lowering priority but keeping in the goal for v1.

Blocked on https://github.com/matrix-org/matrix-react-sdk/pull/1342 or similar change.
