    clevis

    169nazarli-shabnam/clevis · JavaScript

    Clevis is a self-hosted dashboard that turns the GitHub API into security and analytics insight for your repositories and organizations — it computes a security score from six automated checks (MFA enforcement, branch protection, secret scanning, Dependabot alerts, code scanning alerts, default-branch force-push protection) and lets admins run privileged maintenance jobs like clearing GitHub Actions caches.
