The August 13 availability report covers eight incidents. July 8 ran 7 hours 4 minutes at ~96% error rate across Web UI, REST/GraphQL, Actions, Packages, Copilot and Git operations after an automated infrastructure process changed runtime config and broke service discovery. A July 19 SSL cert expiration delayed 9% of Actions runs, peaking at 21.4%. A Vitess vschema change deleted a backing table and broke 113,930 PR creation attempts across 50,904 users in 57 minutes. Redis maintenance on July 25 failed 60% of Actions runs at peak. Every one of these is an automated-change-plus-no-blast-radius-check story.
