Resolved Minor
September 24, 2026 - Started 19 days ago - Lasted 36 minutes

Incident Report

Summary AI Generated

Blacksmith experienced degraded network connectivity between its us-west region and GitHub for approximately 36 minutes, causing slower-than-normal git checkouts for jobs running in that region. Traffic was rerouted to relieve congestion on the upstream network link, restoring git checkout performance to normal levels.

After rerouting traffic, congestion on the upstream network link has subsided, and git checkout performance in us-west has returned to normal. We are monitoring and will resolve this incident once performance has continued to stay stable.
