Summary: allow GitLab users to publish private GitLab pages
# Background
In our GitLab instance, all GitLab pages are public, that is sites published by GitLab CI outside of the static-component system have no access control whatsoever.
GitLab pages does support enabling authentication to hide pages under GitLab authentication. This was not enabled in our instance.
# Proposal
Enable the GitLab access control mechanisms under the `read_api` scope.
Note that this might make your GitLab pages inaccessible if your project was configured to hide them. If that's not something you want, head to `Settings` -> `General` -> `Visibility` -> `Pages` and make them public.
# Deadline
This was implemented on 2023-02-16, and this proposal was written to retroactively inform people of the change.
# Status
This proposal is currently in the `standard` state.
