Disruption with GitHub's code search

This incident has been resolved. Thank you for your patience and understanding as we addressed this issue. A detailed root cause analysis will be shared as soon as it is available.

We have stabilized Code Search infrastructure, and are in the final stages of validation before slowly reintroducing production traffic.

We are still working on recovering back to a serviceable state and expect to have a more substantial update within another two hours.

We are observing some recovery for Code Search queries, but customers should be aware that the data being served may be stale, especially for changes that took place after 07:00 UTC today (1 April 2026). We are still working on recovering our ingestion pipeline, and synchronizing the indexed data.

We will update again within 2 hours.

We identified an issue in our ingestion pipeline that degraded the freshness of Code Search results. While fixing the issue with the ingestion pipeline, a deployment caused a loss of dynamic configuration which is causing most requests for Code Search results to fail. We are working to restore the service and to re-ingest the misaligned data.

We are investigating reports of impacted performance for some GitHub services.
