chainctl policy-gate binding create

Create a policy gate binding.

Synopsis

Create a binding to activate a policy for an organization. If the policy is already enabled with the same mode, this is a no-op. To change the mode of an existing binding, pass –mode explicitly.

The –mode flag controls enforcement behavior: ENFORCE Blocks image pulls that violate the policy. DRY_RUN Records violations without blocking pulls.

The default mode is DRY_RUN. Binding to an organization applies the policy to all repos within it.

chainctl policy-gate binding create --policy POLICY [--parent ORGANIZATION_NAME | ORGANIZATION_ID] [--mode MODE] [--output=json|table] [flags]

Examples


# Enforce a policy on all repos in an organization
chainctl policy-gate binding create --policy=no-critical-cves --parent=engineering --mode=ENFORCE

# Enable a policy in dry-run mode
chainctl policy-gate binding create --policy=no-critical-cves --parent=engineering --mode=DRY_RUN

# Create a binding with interactive organization selection
