palantirtechnologies/policy-bot repository overview

⁠policy-bot

policy-bot is a GitHub App⁠ for enforcing approval policies on pull requests. It does this by creating a status check, which can be configured as a required status check⁠.

While GitHub natively supports required reviews⁠, policy-bot provides more complex approval features:

• Require reviews from specific users, organizations, or teams
• Apply rules based on the files, authors, or branches involved in a pull request
• Combine multiple approval rules with and and or conditions
• Automatically approve pull requests that meet specific conditions

Behavior is configured by a file in each repository. policy-bot also provides a UI to view the detailed approval status of any pull request.

Please see the GitHub repository⁠ for detailed documentation on configuration and usage.
