Run protection

Get whether a repository's workflows run

Whether a repository's workflows run at all: enabled is on for a repository and off for a fork until someone chooses (enabled_chosen says whether anyone has), so a fork never runs the workflows it copied until they are turned on.

GET/repos/{owner}/{name}/actions/permissions

While it is off, no push, pull request, schedule, dispatch, repository_dispatch, merge queue or re-run starts a run; its workflows stay listed. allowed_actions is always all. Needs the Read role.

A fork’s workflows are off until someone turns them on: here ada/hello is a fork nobody has chosen for yet. See Forks.

Authentication: Optional. Public data can be read without a token; send one to see what is private.
MCP tool: workflow with action get_enabled, and the same inputs
Scope: An access token needs repo:read.

Errors

A failed request answers with one of these statuses and a body like {"error": {"code": "not_found", "message": "Repository not found."}}. See errors.

Status	Code	When
401	`unauthenticated`	A token is required, or the one sent is not valid.
403	`forbidden`	The token is valid but not allowed to do this, such as a member-only change, or a token without the scope it needs.
404	`not_found`	It does not exist, or you cannot see it.
422	`invalid`	The input is not valid. `message` says which field and why.
