Overview

Period: 2026-06-15 10:30 UTC to 2026-06-16 04:47 UTC (~18.3 hours)
Runs analyzed: 26 (14 had token data β€” 54% coverage; 12 runs missing token data)
Total tokens: 876K across all workflows
Total Actions minutes: 427 min | Total turns: 40 | Total errors: 25
Estimated cost: not available β€” estimated_cost and token_usage_summary fields absent from this snapshot

🚨 Failure rate at new high β€” 25/26 runs failed (96.2%), up from 89.5% in yesterday's report. The one success was on the main branch (Β§27553866481).

⚠️ Token coverage dropped sharply β€” Only 54% of runs recorded token data (down from 95% in yesterday's report). All 12 runs with missing token data are single-turn failures, suggesting they crash before the api-proxy can record usage.

⚠️ Another burst cluster β€” 12 runs fired between 13:42–15:07 UTC on June 15 (~85 minutes), all failing, repeating the retry-storm pattern seen in previous reports.

πŸ” Optimization Opportunities

  1. Smoke Claude β€” 96.2% failure rate; chronic deterministic failure pattern persists

    • All 14 runs with token data consumed exactly ~62.5K tokens in exactly 2 turns (range: 62,346–62,674 β€” 0.5% variance). This is not flakiness; it is a hard-coded failure path
    • The 12 single-turn failures (no token data) represent a worse failure mode: the run crashes before even completing a turn β€” no useful work is done, but runner time is still consumed (~12 min Γ— 12 = ~144 lost action-minutes)
    • The June 15 burst cluster (13:42–15:07 UTC) shows 12 back-to-back runs across multiple copilot branches, all failing within 85 minutes
    • Recommendation: Investigate and resolve the underlying failure before any further optimization; the 96% failure rate makes all other optimizations irrelevant
  2. Token coverage drop β€” 54% of runs now have token data (was 95% yesterday)

    • The 12 runs without token data all have turns=1 and conclusion=failure, and span diverse branches (copilot/*, fix/*, feat/*), not just one bad branch
    • This suggests a new failure mode that terminates before the api-proxy emits usage data
    • Recommendation: Check api-proxy logs and agent container startup for single-turn crash signatures; compare agent container version across token-present vs token-absent runs
  3. Estimated cost not instrumented β€” estimated_cost is null for all 26 runs (persistent across all historical reports)

    • Recommendation: Verify api-proxy sidecar cost instrumentation is emitting to run metadata
Per-Workflow Details

Smoke Claude

  • Runs: 26 total (14 with token data, 12 without)
  • Total tokens: 875,722 (avg ~62,551/run for data-bearing runs; ~33.7K averaged across all 26)
  • Token range (14 runs): 62,346 – 62,674 (extremely low variance β€” fully deterministic)
  • Total turns: 40 (avg 1.5/run β€” runs without token data are all 1-turn crashes)
  • Total Action minutes: 427 (avg 16.4 min/run)
  • Estimated cost: not available
  • Model/cache breakdown: not available (token_usage_summary absent from all runs)
  • Error rate: 25/26 runs reported errors
  • Failure rate: 25/26 (96.2%)

Runs Without Token Data (12 runs)

All 12 are single-turn failures β€” these runs crash before the api-proxy records any token usage. Diverse branches suggest a systemic early-exit issue, not branch-specific:

Note: the copilot/smoke-claude-optimization branch appears twice among single-turn failures β€” somewhat ironic given the branch name.


Historical Trend

Date Runs w/ Token Data Total Tokens Failure Rate Notes
2026-06-16 (today) 26 14 (54%) 876K 96.2% 🚨 Token coverage dropped; 12 single-turn crashes
2026-06-15 19 18 (95%) 1,125K 89.5% 🚨 Retry storm Jun 14 afternoon
2026-06-14 16 ~16 1,001K 94% 🚨 β€”
2026-06-13 β€” β€” β€” β€” See Β§4862

Trend: Smoke Claude has failed at β‰₯89% for at least 4 consecutive days. This is no longer a transient issue β€” it is a chronic systemic failure. The drop in token coverage (95% β†’ 54%) suggests the failure mode is also evolving, with runs now dying earlier before even completing a turn.
