Gist
GitHub Gist service for code snippets, comments, stars, forks, and public or private file sharing.

What Snow can do with Gist
These are the Gist actions available to the apps you build with Snow. Connecting an account does not make Snow run these on its own.
Tool to create a new gist with one or more files. Use when you need to create a code snippet or text file to share. Note: Do not name your files 'gistfile' with a numerical suffix.
Tool to retrieve a specific gist by its ID. Use when you have a gist_id and need complete gist details.
Tool to list the authenticated user's gists or all public gists if called anonymously. Use after setting a valid GitHub token in headers.
Check if the authenticated user has starred a specific gist. Returns True if the gist is starred, False if not starred or if the gist doesn't exist. This is a read-only, idempotent operation that requires authentication but no special permissions.
