Source: GitHub Changelog

The security manager role can no longer enable or disable GitHub Code Quality for a repository unless they are also an administrator for that repository. Only repository administrators can enable or disable GitHub Code Quality in a repository.

This change keeps the permissions of the security manager role focused on security‑related products, following the principle of least privilege.

To learn more about enabling or disabling GitHub Code Quality, see the documentation for managing GitHub Code Quality settings.
