Activity
Activity is the organization's history, newest first. Every member can read it. Filter it by kind — Dependencies, Notes, Allowlist, Policy, Repositories, MCP keys — or search by package.
Dependency changes
From a repository's second scan on, each scan compares the packages it found with the scan before. A package added to or removed from the default branch is recorded with:
- the repository and the manifests it is declared in;
- the newest commit that changed the manifest, with its message and author;
- the pull request that commit was merged in, if any;
- the person: the one who merged the pull request, else the one who pushed, else the commit's author.
A row reads like octocat added npm chart.js to acme/web, with links to the person, the pull request and the commit on GitHub.
The first scan of a repository records nothing: it is the starting point. A scan that skipped files is not compared, so a skipped file never shows up as a removed package.
Governance changes
Changes made in Depos are recorded as they happen:
- notes added, edited or deleted;
- allowlist entries added, edited or deleted, and baselines;
- policy mode changes;
- changes to the pull request check scope;
- repositories added to or removed from Depos;
- MCP keys added or deleted (see AI agents).
Where else it shows
- A package's page has a History card with its own changes.
- A repository's page has a History card with the packages added to or removed from it.
- Home shows the latest changes.
Deleted notes and entries, removed repositories, and repositories no longer in the GitHub App installation keep their history.
