GitHub Code Quality license estimate in public preview
You can now see the number of active committers on repositories using GitHub Code Quality across your enterprise, giving you an estimate of your Code Quality license cost before it becomes a paid product on July 20, 2026. Code Quality is free during the public preview, so this usage isn’t billed today.
CodeQL 2.26.0 adds Kotlin 2.4.0 support and AI prompt injection detection
CodeQL is the static analysis engine behind GitHub code scanning , which finds and remediates security issues in your code. We’ve recently released CodeQL 2.26.0 , which adds support for Kotlin 2.4.0, introduces a JavaScript and TypeScript query for system prompt injection, and improves analysis accuracy across multiple languages.
Clearer names for secret scanning detector types
To make secret scanning easier to understand, we’re updating the names we use for our detector types to better reflect how each one finds secrets. This is a naming change only; detection behavior is exactly the same.
Organization-level targeting for GitHub Code Quality
Organization owners can now target a subset of repositories when enabling or disabling GitHub Code Quality, rather than applying it to every repository at once. This gives you more granular control on where you enable or disable Code Quality across your organization.
GitHub Code Quality is now generally available
GitHub Code Quality is now generally available on GitHub Enterprise Cloud and GitHub Team. It solves an emerging challenge for software development: AI accelerates code output, and Code Quality helps teams ship code they trust.
