Waste detected

Biggest wins first, each with the exact config fix.

Missing dependency cache · PR Static Smoke

~2266 min/mo · ≈$14/mo

Set `cache: 'gradle'` on your `actions/setup-java` step, or add an `actions/cache@v4` step keyed on your build file.

- uses: actions/setup-java@v4
  with:
    distribution: 'temurin'
    java-version: '21'
    cache: 'gradle'

Missing dependency cache · Deploy Eliza Provisioning Worker

~52 min/mo

Set `cache: 'npm'` on your `actions/setup-node` step, or add an `actions/cache@v4` step keyed on your lockfile.

- uses: actions/setup-node@v4
  with:
    node-version: 20

Also found: 5 more config fixes with negligible recoverable minutes: timeouts, retention, path filters

Premium runners (macOS / Windows) · CI

~0 min/mo

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-latest

Full-history clone (fetch-depth: 0) · CI

~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 path filters on triggers · PR Static Smoke

~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'
