Summary

  • add an entity-aware plain-text sanitizer that preserves visible quotes, apostrophes, and ampersands
  • apply it to issue, pull request, discussion, release, headline, and validation-text surfaces without changing Markdown body sanitization
  • cover raw and encoded HTML, character entities, malformed input, invisible characters, idempotence, and exact tool output

Testing

  • script/lint
  • script/test

Fixes #3214

Add an entity-aware plain-text sanitizer for titles, release names, headlines, and validation text while keeping encoded markup inert and Markdown body handling unchanged.

  <pre>## Highlights

- **New governance tools for agents.** Read and manage repository rulesets and custom properties across repository, organization, and enterprise levels.
- **Faster, safer feature flags.** Functional availability rules evaluate lazily after static filtering, deduplicate checks per request, and preserve precise availability errors.
- **Safer write operations.** Pin merge HEADs, recover file SHAs, use least-privilege public-repository access, and detect silently dropped labels.
- **Richer review and discovery support.** Adds review range coordinates, thread resolution reasons, projected-header preflights, Server Card support, and Agent Plugins.
- **Better content fidelity.** Markdown bodies, titles, release notes, comments, and commit messages preserve visible content while filtering unsafe invisible characters.
