What

Points every stream-labs GitHub reference in this repo at the streamlabs org.

Why

Streamlabs renamed its GitHub organization from stream-labs to streamlabs. GitHub keeps 301 redirects from the old namespace, but only until somebody claims that namespace and creates a repository with a matching name. At that point the redirect stops resolving and the URL points at their repository instead.

The stream-labs namespace is no longer under our control. It is currently held by an organization created on 2026-08-23 that has no public repositories, which is the only reason the redirects still resolve today.

Tracked as HackerOne #3065731 (Critical).

Scope of this change

Only GitHub namespace references were touched. Deliberately left alone:

  • angel.co/company/stream-labs and fiverr.com/cp/stream-labs-marketplace — unrelated third-party URLs
  • the Azure DevOps build badge identifier stream-labs.streamlabs-obs — an Azure DevOps definition name, not a GitHub path
  • Azure DevOps gitHubConnection: stream-labs_deploy — a service-connection name; renaming it here would break the pipeline
  • our own site paths such as /stream-labs redirects and blog tag URLs

The stream-labs GitHub namespace is no longer under our control. These
references resolve only through GitHub's org-rename redirect, which breaks
as soon as a repository with a matching name is created under that
namespace.
