You can block pull requests that don't meet your code quality standards by adding Code Quality thresholds to a ruleset. If a pull request doesn't meet a threshold, it can't be merged.
You can set thresholds for:
- CodeQL findings, by the lowest severity of results you require to be resolved.
- Code coverage, by the minimum percentage of lines that must be covered by tests.
You can enforce these thresholds at the repository level, or at the organization level to apply the same standard across many repositories at once. Choose the organization level when you want a consistent quality bar across teams, and the repository level when a single project needs its own standard. Code Quality AI findings cannot be set as a threshold.

- Code Quality is enabled. See Enabling GitHub Code Quality
- Code in a supported language. See Supported languages.
Note
The threshold will have an impact only if the repository has code in one or more of the supported languages, see Enabling GitHub Code Quality.

Before you add or update a ruleset to include a threshold for Code Quality, confirm that the Code Quality workflow is running and reporting results back to pull requests. Otherwise, the ruleset could block the merging of all pull requests.
- Open a recent pull request and scroll to the "Checks" summary at the bottom of the pull request.
- Confirm that the "CodeQL - Code Quality" check ran successfully and reported its status.

The following steps create or update a ruleset at the repository level. To enforce the same threshold across multiple repositories at once, create an organization ruleset with the same Require code quality results rule instead. See Creating rulesets for repositories in your organization.
- Navigate to the "Settings" tab of your repository.
- In the left sidebar, under "Code and automation", expand Rules, then click Rulesets.
- If you don't already have a ruleset to protect your default branch, expand New ruleset and click New branch ruleset. Alternatively, open your existing ruleset for the default branch and move to step 5.
- If you are creating a new ruleset:
- Define a name for the ruleset.
- Set the "Enforcement status" to "Evaluate" while you calibrate the threshold during a pilot. If you want to enforce the threshold immediately, select "Active."
- Under "Target branches" add a target of "Include default branch."
- Under "Branch rules", enable "Require code quality results".
- Set "Severity" to define the lowest severity of code quality results that must be resolved before a pull request can be merged into the default branch. For example:
- Set "Errors" to block pull requests with unresolved code quality errors being merged.
- Set "Warnings and higher" to block pull requests with unresolved code quality warnings or errors being merged.
- Set "Notes and higher" to block pull requests with unresolved code quality notes, warnings or errors being merged.
- Set "All" to block pull requests with any unresolved code quality results being merged.
- When you have finished defining or editing the ruleset, click Create or Save changes.
If you selected "Evaluate", review the ruleset insights to see which pull requests would have been blocked. When the results match the quality bar you want, change the enforcement status to "Active."

You can also block pull requests that fall below a code coverage threshold. This uses a separate Restrict code coverage rule, not the Require code quality results rule used above, and your repository must upload code coverage data first. For the full procedure, see Setting code coverage thresholds for pull requests.
