Description
**Summary**
When the user registers a new OAuth Application in GitHub, then upon creating a webhook for a private repo, the user gets an error message,
even though the private repositories are enabled in the plugin configuration.
This issue is fixed once the user re-enables the settings and then disconnect-connect their account.

Research direction
Start with the OAuth account connection and private-repository webhook creation flows described in the report, then trace how plugin settings are loaded before the GitHub request. Reproduce the error with private repositories enabled, compare it with the re-enable and reconnect workaround, and verify that the saved configuration is honored without those steps.
