Waste detected
Biggest wins first, each with the exact config fix.
Workflow failing almost every run · SonarCloud
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 concurrency control · SonarCloud
Add a `concurrency:` block keyed on branch to cancel superseded runs when devs push twice quickly.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: trueAlso found: 2 more config fixes with negligible recoverable minutes: timeouts, retention, path filters
No job timeout · SonarCloud
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 · SonarCloud
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.
