On July 9th, 2025, between 14:20 UTC and 16:56 UTC, GitHub Actions was degraded. During this period, 2% of in-progress workflow runs failed and 21% workflow runs failed to start. This incident was caused by a deployment issue where a failed update to our container infrastructure prevented some of the service instances from restarting properly, resulting in reduced capacity in one of the core Actions services. We are implementing safeguards to prevent this failure mode and have added additional monitoring to reduce detection and mitigation time for similar incidents in the future.
