GitHub
Connect Snapvisor to GitHub for build status checks on your pull requests, including a light install that works without read access to your code.
Install the Snapvisor GitHub App and every build posts a status check back to the pull request — so nothing merges with an unreviewed visual change.
What the app does
The GitHub App links your repositories so Snapvisor can post commit and pull-request status checks. It reads the PR's base branch to resolve the baseline and reports whether each build has unreviewed changes.
GitHub integration without content permission
If your security policy won't grant a third party read access to your source, install the light GitHub App variant instead. It requests no content permission — Snapvisor never reads your code — and still posts status checks on your pull requests.
The light install is a separate GitHub App connection on your team. You can switch to it, or uninstall it, at any time from your team's settings.
Authentication in CI
On GitHub Actions you don't have to store an ARGOS_TOKEN at all. Snapvisor supports tokenless authentication and short-lived OIDC tokens so builds authenticate without a long-lived secret.
