Techniques are provided for generation of a software deployment pipeline manifest using software item metadata. One method comprises obtaining software items, requested for inclusion in a software deployment pipeline, and corresponding metadata for at least one of the requested software items, from a software repository; in response to a request to transform a given stage of the software deployment pipeline, generating a manifest for the given stage, wherein the manifest identifies the software items in the given stage and comprises the corresponding metadata for the software items in the given stage; and storing the manifest for the given stage in the software repository. The storage of the software items in the software repository may comprise evaluating, prior to the storage: (i) a presence of vulnerabilities in the software items and (ii) a license review status of the software items.
