Agreements
Overview
Manage Contributor License Agreement templates, repository assignment, and signing workflows.
Agreements (/app/governance/templates) is where you define and maintain Contributor License Agreement (CLA) text. The Open CLA GitHub App enforces coverage on pull requests for repositories you configure.
How agreements fit together
| Piece | Where | Role |
|---|---|---|
| Templates | Agreements list | Legal text and version history |
| Repository assignment | Repository detail | Which template version applies to each repo |
| Contributors | Contributors | Who has signed and corporate coverage |
| Checks | GitHub pull requests | Contributor License Agreement check pass/fail |
Signing modes
- In-app Markdown — default hosted signing experience after GitHub auth
- Dropbox Sign — hosted e-signature when connected on Integrations

| Legacy label | Current sidebar | Path |
|---|---|---|
| CLA → Templates | Agreements | /app/governance/templates |
| CLA → Repositories | Repository | /app/repository |
| CLA → Contributors | Contributors | /app/contributors |
