Palette reads the activity feed, not the actual code. It never scans your codebase, reads file contents, or accesses source code.

What you control

You choose which repos to connect. Individual repos can be enabled or disabled per Palette team. Disconnect a repo and Palette stops reading it.

Connection

Per-workspace. Palette installs as a GitHub App on your organization. Users are mapped individually between Palette and GitHub. See How the Context Library works for the full picture, or go back to the Context Library quick start.
