Well, it's not enough just to create Github repository to use it via composer. You should create account at https://packagist.org/ and add your package in there to make it available via composer require.

In addition you should setup Packagist integration on Github at:

https://github.com/adamibrahim/authconfirm/settings/installations

to make sure after changes in Github Packagist will see those changes.
