Waste detected

Biggest wins first, each with the exact config fix.

Workflow runs on both push and pull_request · CI

~100 min/mo · ≈$1/mo

Pushing to a branch and opening a PR triggers two runs. Pick one (usually `pull_request`) and exclude branch pushes for non-default branches.

on:
  push:
    branches: [main]
  pull_request:

No concurrency control · Semantic Pull Request

~5 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Add a `concurrency:` block keyed on branch to cancel superseded runs when devs push twice quickly.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

Missing dependency cache · Preview release

~5 min/mo

Set `cache: 'pnpm'` 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: 'pnpm'

No concurrency control · Preview release

~2 min/mo

Add a `concurrency:` block keyed on branch to cancel superseded runs when devs push twice quickly.

concurrency:
  group: ${{ github.workflow }}
  # no cancel-in-progress on deploys: queued deploys would be dropped

Also found: 9 more config fixes with negligible recoverable minutes: timeouts, retention, path filters

No job timeout · Issue Labeled

~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

No path filters on triggers · CI

~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'

Premium runners (macOS / Windows) · CI

~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 concurrency control · ecosystem-ci trigger
