app
The octo-sts app functions as a Security Token Service for GitHub, facilitating efficient integration and temporary token creation, eliminating the necessity for Personal Access Tokens. Installation at the organization level is needed for repository access, utilizing trust policies to govern permissions. Trust policies, defined in specific YAML files, aid in managing token permissions and federating identity claims. Supporting OIDC token federation and tailored user permissions, octo-sts enhances GitHub workflows while upholding security standards. Permissions are updated quarterly to ensure seamless user experience, accompanied by thorough reviews.
