Waste detected

Biggest wins first, each with the exact config fix.

No concurrency control · CIFuzz

~68 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Add a `concurrency:` block keyed on branch to cancel superseded runs when devs push twice quickly.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 concurrency control · Build

~17 min/mo

Add a `concurrency:` block keyed on branch to cancel superseded runs when devs push twice quickly.

concurrency:

Also found: 16 more config fixes with negligible recoverable minutes: timeouts, retention, path filters

No job timeout · Build

~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 →

No path filters on triggers · Build

~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'

Artifacts at default retention · Check API compatibility

~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

    retention-days: 7

Third-party actions pinned to a mutable ref · CIFuzz

~0 min/mo

2 third-party actions pinned to a branch or other mutable ref, which can change under you (supply-chain risk, non-reproducible builds). Pin to a full commit SHA instead.

uses: google/oss-fuzz/infra/cifuzz/actions/build_fuzzers@<full-sha>  # was @master

Scheduled workflow runs in forks · CodeQL

~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
