Waste detected

Biggest wins first, each with the exact config fix.

Missing dependency cache · CI

~6 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
    cache: 'npm'

Also found: 1 more config fix with negligible recoverable minutes: timeouts, retention, path filters

No job timeout · CI

~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

Copy every fix as one block (2 snippets, annotated per workflow)
# Missing dependency cache (npm) (applies to: CI)
- uses: actions/setup-node@v4
  with:
    node-version: 20
    cache: 'npm'

# No job timeout (applies to: CI)
jobs:
  build:

    timeout-minutes: 15

Each snippet is representative. Merge into the named workflow files rather than pasting wholesale.
