Verbatim, from the transcripts: the passages where GitHub Actions comes up

▶ 20:40 Quinn Slack The only time we go to GitHub is if there's like a problem with our GitHub actions, which happened a lot in the last 24 hours with like many hours of downtime. 2 times in the scene

▶ 11:07 Kyle Daigle We might use GitHub actions like with, uh, our agentic workflows just to go do that run.
▶ 23:33 Kyle Daigle Yeah, no, I mean, like, uh, the, I think one, uh, one highlight was, uh, right before the acquisition closed in 2018, I got to launch the first version of Actions, uh, GitHub Universe. 4 times in the scene
▶ 41:10 Kyle Daigle Potentially, like honestly, like in an agentic workflow, like that's what we see some of these open source projects do where you have, you know, get up actions and then you have like an agentic workflow that's calling AI and you're setting…
▶ 52:42 Kyle Daigle Some of the growth issues, uh, which is why we're, I was talking about, uh, you know, pushing hard on more CPUs is in actions in particular, uh, more tools, more agents, more PRs mean more builds, more builds in more CPUs.
▶ 1:00:44 Kyle Daigle I think the other piece of it is, um, uh, our, our move to get additional compute will alleviate a fair amount of this, particularly on the action side, because a lot of the underlying, um, outages is actually 7 times in the scene

▶ 55:51 Ivan Burazin Like not just action, like not just actions, but like go to any CI provider.

▶ 51:12 Jonas Nelle Like, we've broken our GitHub actions recently because we have so many agents, like, producing and pushing code that, like, CICD is just, like, overloaded because suddenly it's, like, effectively we grew, cursor's growing very quickly…

▶ 39:28 James Reggio And, um, and one thing I think what we did early on, and I don't actually know if this is true, because again, the team keeps sort of iterating, uh, but we were having good, uh, good luck using, um, cloud code, like in a GitHub action to…

▶ 2:37 Dax Reed Just have a separate terminal app that can run anywhere, whether it's, you know, on your computer, on a server and GitHub actions, whatever it is, it's really flexible.

▶ 57:58 unnamed speaker To run the CLI to spin up more clients, or you could run client in some kind of cloud process in a, in a GitHub action, whatever you want.

▶ 20:15 Solomon Hykes There's some open source projects that tries to simulate, say, GitHub actions locally.

▶ 21:47 Boris Cherny For quad code internally in the GitHub repo, we have this GitHub action that runs. 3 times in the scene
▶ 1:00:06 Boris Cherny So, uh, you're, you're saying like through like a pre-commit hook or like a GitHub action or.
▶ 1:01:42 Boris Cherny It's like less than, you know, five seconds or so, like just types and lint maybe, and then more expensive stuff you can put in the GitHub action or GitLab or whatever you're using.

▶ 10:34 Graham Neubig Um, the agents are super good at using the GitHub API also, so they can do, you know, things on GitHub, like finding all of the, you know, comments on your issues or checking GitHub actions and stuff.
▶ 18:43 Graham Neubig So just to give an example, um, we fix GitHub actions when GitHub actions are failing, and we do that over and over and over again.
▶ 43:31 Graham Neubig It will sometimes fail to fix a GitHub workflow because it will not look at the GitHub workflow and understand what the GitHub workflow is doing before it solves the problem.

▶ 40:10 Alistair Pullen And if you have CI running GitHub, you have GitHub Actions and stuff like that, then Genie essentially makes a call out to that, runs your CI, sees the outputs, and then, like, moves on.

▶ 31:32 Jeremy Howard Um, you know, GitHub Actions, I can write now in Python, which is just so much easier than writing them in TypeScript and stuff, so.
