ByteGuard adds a human verification step to your most consequential scripts. We use a mechanism similar to multifactor authentication for soliciting approval from team members before a function executes. This functionality can be used to safeguard against human error, workflow errors, and bugs in automation. Below are the steps to use byteguard-build-actions plugin.
