Degraded Gemini 2.5 Pro experience in Copilot

Resolved - Between October 1st, 2025 at 1 AM UTC and October 2nd, 2025 at 10:33 PM UTC, the Copilot service experienced a degradation of the Gemini 2.5 Pro model due to an issue with our upstream provider. Before 15:53 UTC on October 1st, users experienced higher error rates with large context requests while using Gemini 2.5 Pro. After 15:53 UTC and until 10:33 PM UTC on October 2nd, requests were restricted to smaller context windows when using Gemini 2.5. Pro. No other models were impacted.

The issue was resolved by a mitigation put in place by our provider. GitHub is collaborating with our provider to enhance communication and improve the ability to reproduce issues with the aim to reduce resolution time.
Oct 2, 22:33 UTC

Update - We have confirmed that the fix for the lower token input limit for Gemini 2.5 Pro is in place and are currently testing our previous higher limit to verify that customers will experience no further impact.
Oct 2, 22:26 UTC

Update - The underlying issue for the lower token limits for Gemini 2.5 Pro has been identified and a fix is in progress. We will update again once we have tested and confirmed that the fix is correct and globally deployed.
Oct 2, 17:13 UTC

Update - We are continuing to work with our provider to resolve the issue where some Copilot requests using Gemini 2.5 Pro return an error indicating a bad request due to exceeding the input limit size.
Oct 2, 02:52 UTC

Update - We are continuing to investigate and test solutions internally while working with our model provider on a deeper investigation into the cause. We will update again when we have identified a mitigation.
Oct 1, 18:16 UTC

Update - We are testing other internal mitigations so that we can return to the higher maximum input length. We are still working with our upstream model provider to understand the contributing factors for this sudden decrease in input limits.
Oct 1, 17:37 UTC

Update - We are experiencing a service regression for the Gemini 2.5 Pro model in Copilot Chat, VS Code and other Copilot products. The maximum input length of Gemini 2.5 prompts been decreased. Long prompts or large context windows may result in errors. This is due to an issue with an upstream model provider. We are working with them to resolve the issue.

Other models are available and working as expected.

Disruption with Gemini 2.5 Pro and Gemini 2.0 Flash in Copilot

Resolved - On September 29, 2025, between 17:53 and 18:42 UTC, the Copilot service experienced a degradation of the Gemini 2.5 model due to an issue with our upstream provider. Approximately 24% of requests failed, affecting 56% of users during this period. No other models were impacted.

GitHub notified the upstream provider of the problem as soon as it was detected. The issue was resolved after the upstream provider rolled back a recent change that caused the disruption. GitHub will continue to enhance our monitoring and alerting systems to reduce the time it takes to detect and mitigate similar issues in the future.
Sep 29, 19:12 UTC

Update - The upstream model provided has resolved the issue and we are seeing full availability for Gemini 2.5 Pro and Gemini 2.0 Flash.
Sep 29, 19:12 UTC

Update - We are experiencing degraded availability for the Gemini 2.5 Pro & Gemini 2.0 Flash models in Copilot Chat, VS Code and other Copilot products. This is due to an issue with an upstream model provider. We are working with them to resolve the issue.

Disruption with some GitHub services

Resolved - On September 29, 2025 between 16:26 UTC and 17:33 UTC the Copilot API experienced a partial degradation causing intermittent erroneous 404 responses for an average of 0.2% of GitHub MCP server requests, peaking at times around 2% of requests. The issue stemmed from an upgrade of an internal dependency which exposed a misconfiguration in the service.

We resolved the incident by rolling back the upgrade to address the misconfiguration. We fixed the configuration issue and will improve documentation and rollout process to prevent similar issues.
Sep 29, 17:33 UTC

Update - Customers are getting 404 responses when connecting to the GitHub MCP server. We have reverted a change we believe is contributing to the impact, and are seeing resolution in deployed environments.

Disruption with some GitHub services

Resolved - On September 26, 2025 between 16:22 UTC and 18:32 UTC raw file access was degraded for a small set of four repositories. On average, raw file access error rate was 0.01% and peaked at 0.16% of requests. This was due to a caching bug exposed by excessive traffic to a handful of repositories.

We mitigated the incident by resetting the state of the cache for raw file access and are working to improve cache usage and testing to prevent issues like this in the future.

Sep 25, 17:36 UTC

Update - We are seeing issues related to our ability to serve raw file access across a small percentage of our requests.

Disruption with some GitHub services

Resolved - On September 23, 2025, between 15:29 UTC and 17:38 UTC and also on September 24, 2025 between 15:02 UTC and 15:12, email deliveries were delayed up to 50 minutes which resulted in significant delays for most types of email notifications. This occurred due to an unusually high volume of traffic which caused resource contention on some of our outbound email servers.

We have updated the configuration we use to better allocate capacity when there is a high volume of traffic and are also updating our monitors so we can detect this type of issue before it becomes a customer impacting incident.
Sep 24, 15:36 UTC

Update - We are seeing delays in email delivery, which is impacting notifications and user signup email verification. We are investigating and working on mitigation.

Claude Opus 4 is experiencing degraded performance

Resolved - On September 24th, 2025, between 08:02 UTC and 09:11 UTC the Copilot service was degraded for Claude Opus 4 and Claude Opus 4.1 requests. On average, 22% of requests failed for Claude Opus 4 and 80% of requests for Claude Opus 4.1. This was due to an upstream provider returning elevated errors on Claude Opus 4 and Opus 4.1.

We mitigated the issue by directing users to select other models and by monitoring recovery. To resolve the issue, we are expanding failover capabilities by integrating with additional infrastructure providers.
Sep 24, 09:18 UTC

Update - Between around 8:16 UTC and 8:51 UTC we saw elevated errors on Claude Opus 4 and Opus 4.1, up to 49% of requests were failing. This has recovered to around 4% of requests failing, we are monitoring recovery.

Incident with Copilot

Resolved - Between 20:06 UTC September 23 and 04:58 UTC September 24, 2025, the Copilot service experienced degraded availability for Claude Sonnet 4 and 3.7 model requests.

During this period, 0.46% of Claude 4 requests and 7.83% of Claude 3.7 requests failed.

The reduced availability resulted from Copilot disabling routing to an upstream provider that was experiencing issues and reallocating capacity to other providers to manage requests for Claude Sonnet 3.7 and 4.
We are continuing to investigate the source of the issues with this provider and will provide an update as more information becomes available.
Sep 24, 00:26 UTC

Update - The issues with our upstream model provider have been resolved, and Claude Sonnet 3.7 and Claude Sonnet 4 are once again available in Copilot Chat, VS Code and other Copilot products.

We will continue monitoring to ensure stability, but mitigation is complete.

Sep 24, 00:26 UTC

Update - We are experiencing degraded availability for the Claude Sonnet 3.7 and Claude Sonnet 4 model in Copilot Chat, VS Code and other Copilot products. This is due to an issue with an upstream model provider. We are working with them to resolve the issue.

Other models are available and working as expected.

Incident with Pages and Actions

Resolved - On September 23, between 17:11 and 17:40 UTC, customers experienced failures and delays when running workflows on GitHub Actions and building or deploying GitHub Pages. The issue was caused by a faulty configuration change that disrupted service to service communication in GitHub Actions. During this period, in-progress jobs were delayed and new jobs would not start due to a failure to acquire runners, and about 30% of all jobs failed. GitHub Pages users were unable to build or deploy their Pages during this period.

The offending change was rolled back within 15 minutes of its deployment, after which Actions workflows and Pages deployments began to succeed. Actions customers continued to experience delays for about 15 minutes after the rollback was completed while services worked through the backlog of queued jobs. We are planning to implement additional rollout checks to help detect and prevent similar issues in the future.
Sep 23, 17:41 UTC

Update - We are investigating delays in Actions Workflows.
