# GitHub Actions Timeout Risk Audit

Use this skill to find GitHub Actions jobs that are timing out or trending dangerously close to timeout limits.

What this skill does

- `warn` when runtime exceeds `WARN_RATIO * JOB_TIMEOUT_SECONDS`

- `critical` when runtime exceeds `CRITICAL_RATIO * JOB_TIMEOUT_SECONDS`

- always `critical` for jobs with `conclusion=timed_out`

Inputs

Optional:

Collect run JSON

gh run view <run-id> --json databaseId,workflowName,headBranch,url,repository,jobs \
  > artifacts/github-actions/run-<run-id>.json

> Ensure `jobs` includes `startedAt`, `completedAt`, and `conclusion`.

Run

Text report:

RUN_GLOB='artifacts/github-actions/*.json' \
JOB_TIMEOUT_SECONDS=3600 \
WARN_RATIO=0.85 \
CRITICAL_RATIO=0.95 \
bash skills/github-actions-timeout-risk-audit/scripts/timeout-risk-audit.sh

JSON output + fail gate:

RUN_GLOB='artifacts/github-actions/*.json' \
OUTPUT_FORMAT=json \
FAIL_ON_CRITICAL=1 \
bash skills/github-actions-timeout-risk-audit/scripts/timeout-risk-audit.sh

Repo/workflow filter:

RUN_GLOB='artifacts/github-actions/*.json' \
REPO_MATCH='^flowcreatebot/' \
WORKFLOW_MATCH='(CI|Build)' \
bash skills/github-actions-timeout-risk-audit/scripts/timeout-risk-audit.sh

Run with bundled fixtures:

RUN_GLOB='skills/github-actions-timeout-risk-audit/fixtures/*.json' \
bash skills/github-actions-timeout-risk-audit/scripts/timeout-risk-audit.sh
