New: Repository Labels + Security Policies

You can now organize your repositories with custom labels and apply label-specific security policies.

This gives you fine-grained control over how security rules are enforced — ideal for large orgs managing lots of repos across different teams, stacks, and sensitivity levels.

With this update you can:

  • Add custom labels to repositories (e.g. archived, frontend, critical, team-security)
  • Filter, sort, and search by label
  • Apply custom security policies to any label
  • Override your org-wide security policy for specific sets of repos
  • Automate it all using our public API

Label-based security policies take effect immediately when a label is applied. You can still keep a default org-wide policy for everything else.
