Create the Protect Your Vibes GitHub App
One click creates the App under your GitHub account. After you hit “Create,” GitHub redirects back to us with the App's credentials automatically — no copy-pasting.
What the App can do
- Readfile contents, repo metadata, and PR diffs — needed to scan your code for leaked secrets and vulnerabilities.
- Writeissues on your repo (optional) — so each critical finding becomes a trackable GitHub issue that auto-closes when the scanner confirms it's fixed.
- Receive webhooks for
push,pull_request, and install events — that's how the scanner knows to run.
What ships today (V3.1)
- On every PR, we fetch the diff via the GitHub Apps API and log metadata (file paths, line counts) for the scanner.
- Diff contentnever leaves the request. We don't persist or log source lines — only file/hunk locations.
- Coming next (V3.2): the actual scan + a Check posted back on your PR with findings. This stream is the receive-and-fetch half; the post-back half ships in the next release.
What it can NOT do
- Push commits to your repo. Ever. No write access to
contents. - Access any repo you don't explicitly grant it after creation.
- Read anything outside the scopes listed above.
You'll be taken to GitHub. After you click “Create App,” GitHub sends you right back here and we'll finish the setup.
