Issue Management
Track audit findings as GitHub issues — create them manually or automatically, with bidirectional status sync.
Track audit findings as GitHub issues. Create them automatically or manually, and Cygent keeps everything in sync.
- Auto-create issues — Automatically create GitHub issues for findings above a configured severity threshold.
- Manual creation — Create issues for individual findings from the dashboard or via chat.
- Severity & status labels — Issues are labeled by severity (e.g.,
cygent:high) and status (e.g.,cygent:open). - Issue tracking — Findings in the dashboard link directly to their corresponding GitHub issues.
- Auto-close sync — Closing a linked issue as completed marks the finding as Fixed; closing as not planned marks it as Invalid; reopening the issue returns the finding to Open.
- PR keyword support — If a PR uses GitHub keywords like
Closes #123, merging that PR closes the linked issue and automatically updates the finding status.
