Port Community Session: October 2026 Edition
Register
Join us for the next Port Community Session. This monthly gathering is where the Port community comes together to explore new product updates, hear use cases from our own community members, and dig into everything agentic SDLC and the AI software factory.
Revital Ben Ami from our Product team opens with what shipped last month, the problems each feature solves, and what's next on the roadmap.
Then Community Voice, and this month it comes from GitHub. Rohan Parakh, Staff Product Manager at GitHub, joins Revital to show what the two teams built together. The context you already manage in Port, service tier, ownership, compliance status, business criticality, agent-readiness, now lives right on your repositories. Which means you can search on it, govern by it, and set the ruleset guardrails your agents need before they ever touch a repo.
You'll learn how to:
- Connect Port and GitHub to surface owner, tier, compliance, and more directly on your repositories
- Apply governance at scale by targeting rulesets and policies based on that context
- Keep Port as the source of truth with a one-way, read-only sync (no duplication, no drift)
- Focus on the repositories that matter most across GitHub filters, selectors, and rulesets
Platform, DevEx, or security, you'll leave knowing how to turn the context you already have into better decisions across every repository.
What we'll cover
- What shipped: a walkthrough of recent releases and changes
- Community Voice: Rohan Parakh from GitHub on what external custom properties are, how they differ from standard custom properties, and the value they unlock. Then Revital shows the integration end to end, syncing real organizational context into GitHub and putting it to work across repositories.
- What's next on the roadmap, and the community priorities shaping it
- New game reveal
- Q&A with the team
