The GitHub connection is required for VibeScale to scan the source code, dependencies, and check for exposed secrets in the repository. Without this connection, security analyses cannot be run.
Start the connection
In the app creation wizard, click Connect GitHub. You will be redirected to GitHub’s authorization screen.
Authorize VibeScale
On the GitHub screen, review the requested permissions and click Authorize. VibeScale requests read-only permissions — no writes are made to your repository.
Select the repository
After returning to the platform, use the dropdown to find and select the correct repository. You can type to filter the list if you have many repositories.
Confirm the installation
The platform verifies that repository access is active. Once confirmed, the app advances to the URL validation step and then to the dashboard.
You can update the connected repository at any time directly from the app dashboard, without needing to recreate the app from scratch.
