Waste detected

Biggest wins first, each with the exact config fix.

No job timeout · Test

~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

Large build matrix · Test

~0 min/mo

The matrix expands to many parallel jobs per run, multiplying billable minutes, often more combos than you need. Trim the axes, or use `include:` to list only the combinations that matter.

strategy:
  fail-fast: true
  matrix:
    include:
      - { os: ubuntu-latest, node: 20 }
      - { os: ubuntu-latest, node: 22 }

Premium runners (macOS / Windows) · Test

~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

No job timeout · Pull Request Labeler

~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 (3 snippets, annotated per workflow)
# No job timeout (applies to: Test, Pull Request Labeler)
jobs:
  build:
    runs-on: ubuntu-latest
    timeout-minutes: 15

# Large build matrix (applies to: Test)
strategy:
  fail-fast: true
  matrix:
    include:
      - { os: ubuntu-latest, node: 20 }
      - { os: ubuntu-latest, node: 22 }

# Premium runners (macOS / Windows) (applies to: Test)
jobs:
  build:
    runs-on: ubuntu-latest  # ~10x cheaper than macos-latest

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