# GitHub App Permissions

Configure the Jataka GitHub App with repository-level access so it can evaluate pull requests, post check runs, and enforce merge quality gates.

## Required Permissions

* Read access to actions, code, issues, and metadata
* Read and write access to checks and pull requests

## Why These Permissions Are Required

* Jataka reads code and metadata changes from pull requests to run architecture and quality analysis.
* Jataka posts check results directly on pull requests and updates check states as runs progress.
* Jataka requires check-write access to block merges when policy or test gates fail.
