Developer reports intermittent macOS CI/CD runner failures

By PulseAugur Editorial · [1 sources] ·

A developer encountered intermittent issues with CI/CD runners on macOS, where a simple README link change caused jobs to fail or take over 15 minutes to acquire a runner. However, on a subsequent attempt with the exact same change, the macOS job completed in 8 seconds, and the entire process finished in just over 5 minutes. This inconsistency suggests a problem with the runner infrastructure rather than the script itself, as other jobs on different operating systems like Windows and Ubuntu completed quickly. The developer advises against immediately altering scripts when such intermittent failures occur, recommending a re-run and observation of the job conclusion first. AI

IMPACT Highlights potential infrastructure instability affecting development workflows.
