PR scans run when you open a pull request and post results directly to the PR. They’re designed for daily development workflows: catch issues before they merge.

Prerequisites

  • The SecAlly GitHub App is installed for your organization.
  • The repository is toggled Monitored in SecAlly (see Onboarding.)

Triggering a PR scan

  1. Open a pull request in a monitored repository.
  2. SecAlly creates a GitHub check run and starts analysis.
  3. Results appear as a PR review with a summary and inline comments.
PR scan results posted as a GitHub review

What gets scanned

Troubleshooting

  • No scan activity: confirm the repository is Monitored in SecAlly.
  • No check run or comments: confirm the SecAlly GitHub App still has access to the repository in GitHub.
