Waste detected

Biggest wins first, each with the exact config fix.

No concurrency control · Pipeline Labels

~1 min/mo

Add a `concurrency:` block keyed on branch to cancel superseded runs when devs push twice quickly.

concurrency:
  group: ${{ github.workflow }}-${{ github.ref }}
  cancel-in-progress: true

Also found: 20 more config fixes with negligible recoverable minutes — timeouts, retention, path filters

Large build matrix · CI (Nightly)

~0 min/mo

The matrix expands to many parallel jobs per run, multiplying billable minutes, often more combos than you need. Trim the axes, or use `include:` to list only the combinations that matter.

strategy:
  fail-fast: true
  matrix:
    include:
      - { os: ubuntu-latest, node: 20 }
      - { os: ubuntu-latest, node: 22 }

Scheduled at the top of the hour · CI (Nightly)

~0 min/mo

The schedule fires at minute :00 — GitHub's peak window, where scheduled runs get delayed or skipped. Shift to any other minute for the same cadence with less contention.

on:
  schedule:
    - cron: '53 3 * * *'  # was '0 3 * * *' — any non-:00 minute avoids the herd

Full guide: how to fix this →

Scheduled workflow runs in forks · CI (Nightly)

~0 min/mo

The schedule has no repository guard, so forks that enable Actions inherit the cron and burn their own minutes. Gate the job with `if: github.repository == 'owner/repo'`.

jobs:
  nightly:
    if: github.repository == 'owner/repo'
    runs-on: ubuntu-latest

Full-history clone (fetch-depth: 0) · Droid PR Review

~0 min/mo

checkout fetches the entire git history every run (`fetch-depth: 0`) and nothing in the workflow appears to read it. Remove the line — the default shallow clone is much faster on big repos. Keep it if a step genuinely needs history.

- uses: actions/checkout@v4
  # fetch-depth: 0 removed — default shallow clone is enough here

No concurrency control · Droid Tag

~0 min/mo

Add a `concurrency:` block keyed on branch to cancel superseded runs when devs push twice quickly.

concurrency:
  group: ${{ github.workflow }}-${{ github.ref }}
  cancel-in-progress: true

No job timeout · Merge Ready Reconciler

~0 min/mo

No job sets `timeout-minutes`, so a hung step can run to GitHub's 6-hour default. Add `timeout-minutes` to each job.

jobs:
  build:
    runs-on: ubuntu-latest
    timeout-minutes: 15

Full guide: how to fix this →

Artifacts at default retention · Merge Ready Reconciler

~0 min/mo

`upload-artifact` has no `retention-days`, so artifacts keep up to 90 days (storage cost). Set e.g. `retention-days: 7`.

- uses: actions/upload-artifact@v4
  with:
    name: build
    path: dist/
    retention-days: 7

Full guide: how to fix this →

Frequent scheduled runs · Merge Ready Reconciler

~0 min/mo

A schedule cron fires >4×/hour, so scheduled runs cost minutes around the clock. Loosen the cadence.

on:
  schedule:
    - cron: '*/30 * * * *'  # every 30 min instead of every minute

Full guide: how to fix this →

Scheduled workflow runs in forks · Merge Ready Reconciler

~0 min/mo

The schedule has no repository guard, so forks that enable Actions inherit the cron and burn their own minutes. Gate the job with `if: github.repository == 'owner/repo'`.

jobs:
  nightly:
    if: github.repository == 'owner/repo'
    runs-on: ubuntu-latest

No path filters on triggers · Needs Label Gate

~0 min/mo

Runs on every push/PR with no `paths:` filter, so docs-only changes still trigger full CI. Add a `paths:` filter if that's common.

on:
  pull_request:
    paths:
      - 'src/**'
      - 'package.json'
