📊 GitHub API Consumption Report

Report Date: 2026-08-19 · Repository: github/gh-aw · Run: #32244620148

⚠️ Data availability note: The logs tool was queried for the full 90-day backfill window, but the collected dataset only contains runs from a single calendar date, 2026-08-07 (100 runs, 07:52–14:14 UTC). A continuation call confirmed there were no further runs available further back in the window. All figures below reflect that single day rather than a rolling 24h window ending today — treat this report as a baseline snapshot until more history accumulates in cache-memory.

Today at a Glance (2026-08-07 — most recent available data)

Metric	Value

⏱ Avg Duration	553.9s (p95: 1164.0s)

🔗 GitHub API Calls Trend (90 days)

Only one day of run history (2026-08-07, 1,645 calls) fell inside the requested 90-day window, so no multi-day trend line can be drawn yet. This data point is now stored in cache-memory and will anchor the trend as future runs of this report accumulate more days.

---

🔗 GitHub API Calls by Workflow Trend (30 days)

PR Description Updater (194 calls), PR Sous Chef (182 calls) and Impeccable Skills Reviewer (170 calls) were the top consumers on the only day observed. PR Sous Chef stands out for volume (13 runs) rather than per-run cost, while AI Moderator burned 101 calls in a single run — worth watching as a per-run outlier.

---

🔗 GitHub REST API Calls Heatmap (90 days)

Since only 2026-08-07 has data, this heatmap shows the hour-of-day distribution for that single day rather than a 90-day weekly pattern. Activity is concentrated in a ~7-hour band (07:00–14:00 UTC), peaking sharply at 13:00 UTC with 533 calls — over 3x the next-busiest hour — with no activity recorded outside that window.

---

🍩 Top API Burners (24h)

The top 7 workflows account for 51.9% of all REST API calls, with the remaining 48.1% spread thinly across 49 other workflows — a moderate concentration, not a single dominant consumer. PR Description Updater, PR Sous Chef, and Impeccable Skills Reviewer together make up a third of total consumption.

---

🔗 GitHub REST API Consumption by Workflow (last 24h)

PR Description Updater, PR Sous Chef, and Impeccable Skills Reviewer lead consumption, but none is close to the 15,000/hr rate limit even concentrated into a single hour (peak hour used 533 calls, ~3.6% of the hourly cap). PR Code Quality Reviewer has the highest average duration (701s) relative to its API footprint (69 calls) — a candidate for reviewing whether its longer runtime is buying proportionate value.
