Optimization Opportunities

General Optimization Strategies

Based on the token consumption patterns, consider these optimization approaches:

1. High Token Workflows (>500K tokens/run)

   • Affected Workflows: CI Failure Doctor, Agent Persona Explorer, Discussion Task Miner - Code Quality Improvement Agent, Q, PR Triage Agent, and 36 more
   • Potential Savings: ~$431.35 (30% reduction)
   • Actions:
     • Optimize prompt engineering to reduce context size
     • Break complex workflows into smaller, focused tasks
     • Cache frequently accessed data or results

2. High Frequency Workflows (>50 runs)

   • Affected Workflows: Test Workflow, Test Dispatcher Workflow
   • Potential Savings: ~$42.68 (20% reduction)
   • Actions:
     • Implement caching for repeated operations
     • Review trigger conditions to ensure necessary runs only
     • Consider batching operations where appropriate

3. Low Success Rate Workflows (<80% success)

   • Affected Workflows: None identified
   • Wasted Cost: ~$0.00 from failed runs
   • Actions:
     • Investigate and fix common failure patterns
     • Add better error handling and retry logic
     • Improve input validation to catch issues early

Activity Distribution

• 25th percentile: 1 runs
• Median: 2 runs
• 75th percentile: 2 runs
• Maximum: 119 runs

This shows a significant variance in workflow activity, with some workflows being run much more frequently than others.

Methodology & Data Quality Notes

Methodology

• Data Source: GitHub Actions workflow run artifacts from last 30 days
• Engine Filter: Copilot engine workflows only
• Memory Storage: /tmp/gh-aw/repo-memory/default/token-metrics-history.jsonl
• Analysis Date: 2026-02-05 11:37 UTC
• Historical Data: 1 day(s) of trend data (first report)
• Cost Model: $0.01 per 1,000 tokens (approximate Copilot pricing)
• Total Runs Analyzed: 477

Data Quality Notes

• This is the first daily report, so trend analysis will improve with more historical data
• Token usage data is based on actual Copilot API consumption metrics
• Costs are estimates based on standard Copilot token pricing
• Success rates calculated from workflow conclusions (success/failure/cancelled)
• Duration metrics represent wall-clock time from workflow start to completion

Future Enhancements

• Week-over-week trends: Will be available after 7 days of data collection
• Monthly comparisons: Will be available after 30 days of data collection
• Cost projections: Will be added once sufficient historical data is available
• Anomaly detection: Will identify unusual spikes or patterns over time
