What is the reason behind Git Access Tokens being viewable only once after generation on platforms like GitHub? I'm struggling to comprehend this approach as it compels me to store the key in an insecure manner.

    The reason is that it grants access on your behalf so it needs to be handled with care. You should only need it to grant the access to whatever tool you're setting up and never again. If you need to set up again, or set up something else, create a new token.
