No concurrency control · Test
Add a `concurrency:` block keyed on branch to cancel superseded runs when devs push twice quickly.

cancel-in-progress: trueWorkflow failing almost every run · Close stale and lock closed issues and PRs
Fails or times out on nearly all recent runs, burning minutes to produce only red, and an always-red workflow usually gets ignored. Fix it, or disable the trigger until it's ready.
No job timeout · Test
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: 15No path filters on triggers · Test
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'Premium runners (macOS / Windows) · Test
macOS bills ~10× and Windows ~2× 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`.
