Missing dependency cache · CI
Add `Swatinem/rust-cache@v2` (the de-facto cargo cache), or an `actions/cache@v4` step keyed on `Cargo.lock`.
- uses: Swatinem/rust-cache@v2No concurrency control · Semver Checks
Add a `concurrency:` block keyed on branch to cancel superseded runs when devs push twice quickly.

No job timeout · Benchmark
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: 15Premium runners (macOS / Windows) · CI (post-merge)
macOS bills ~10x and Windows ~2x a Linux minute. The cost estimate above assumes Linux, so your real spend is higher. Move any job that doesn't need them to `ubuntu-latest`.
jobs:
build:
runs-on: ubuntu-latest # ~10x cheaper than macos-latestNo path filters on triggers · CI
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.

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.
