[Retroactive] Disruption with some GitHub Services

Resolved - On 15 July, between 19:55 and 19:58 UTC, requests to GitHub had a high failure rate while successful requests suffered up to 10x expected latency.

Browser-based requests saw a failure rate of up to 20%, GraphQL had up to a 9% failure rate and 2% of REST API requests failed. Any downstream service dependent on GitHub APIs was also affected during this short window.

The failure stemmed from a database query change, and was rolled back by our deployment tooling which automatically detected the issue. We will continue to invest in automated detection and rollback with a goal of minimizing time to recovery.

Incident with Actions

Resolved - On July 8, 2025, between 14:20 UTC and 16:30 UTC, GitHub Actions service experienced degraded performance leading to delays in updates to Actions workflow runs including missing logs and delayed run status. During this period, 1.07% of Actions workflow runs experienced delayed updates, while 0.34% of runs completed, but showed as canceled in their status. The incident was caused by imbalanced load in our underlying service infrastructure. The issue was mitigated by scaling up our services and tuning resource thresholds. We are working to improve our resilience to load spikes, capacity planning to prevent similar issues, and are implementing more robust monitoring to reduce detection and mitigation time for similar incidents in the future.
Jul 8, 16:44 UTC

Update - We are seeing complete recovery for Actions. New jobs will run as normal. Some runs initiated during the incident will be left in a stuck state and will not complete.
Jul 8, 16:43 UTC

Update - We have scaled out our capacity and customers will begin to see timely updates.
Jul 8, 16:29 UTC

Update - Some customers are seeing delays in updates to their runs resulting in missing logs and delayed run status updates. We are investigating the cause of the issue.

Disruption with some GitHub services

Resolved - On July 7, 2025, between 21:14 UTC and 22:34 UTC, Copilot coding Agent was degraded and non-responsive to issue assignment. Impact was limited to internal GitHub staff because the feature flag gating a newly released feature was enabled on internal development setups and not in global GitHub production environments.

The incident was mitigated by disabling the feature flag for all users.

While our existing safeguards worked as intended—the feature flag allowed for immediate mitigation and the limited scope prevented broader impact—we are enhancing our monitoring to better detect issues that affect smaller user segments and reviewing our internal testing processes to identify similar edge cases before they reach production.

Disruption with some GitHub services

Resolved - On July 7th, 2025, between 18:20 UTC and 22:10 UTC the Actions service was degraded for GitHub Larger Hosted and scale set runners. During this time window, 9% of GitHub Larger Hosted Runners and scale set jobs saw a delay of at least 5 minutes before being assigned to a runner. Impact was more apparent to customers that didn’t have pre-scaled runner pools or who infrequently queued jobs during the incident window. This was due to a change that unintentionally decreased the rate at which we notified our backend that new scale set runners were coming online, and was mitigated by reverting that change. To reduce the likelihood and impact time of a similar issue in the future, we are improving our detection of this failure mode so we catch it in earlier stages of development and rollout.
Jul 7, 22:22 UTC

Update - We are investigating reports of degraded performance for larger runners.
