Sign up with your email, then land on an empty dashboard with one next step: connect a repository.

Connect a repository

The current connector authenticates with a GitHub personal access token — paste one when prompted during onboarding. See Tokens and permissions for the exact scope required and why it is broader than we would like.

Review the drafted policy

The repository is cloned once to verify access. Its README, manifest, and tracked files are read, and an intent document plus sensitive, infrastructure, and denied path rules are drafted for your review. Nothing is watched until you approve that draft.
