GitHub Code Quality now writes an audit log event whenever someone enables, disables, or changes its settings on a repository.
Three new events give you that history, including an event named repo.code_quality_enabled that records when changes occur.
WHY THIS MATTERS
The update introduces audit log coverage for Code Quality enablement changes on a repository, providing historical visibility through log events. TechStaged has also covered GitHub introduces a dedicated Actions path for Code Quality, separating CodeQL workflows.
