February 5, 2026 Reports:
| Metric | Copilot Agent Analysis (#13858) | Daily News (#13886) | Scope Analysis | Status |
|---|---|---|---|---|
open_issues |
2 | 50 | ℹ️ Different Scopes | ✅ Expected |

12 | 50 | ℹ️ Different Scopes | ✅ Expected |
total_prs |
59 | N/A | - | - |
merged_prs |
45 | N/A | - | - |
Scope Notes:
- Copilot Agent Analysis focuses on agent-generated PRs and related issues (24-hour period)
- Daily News provides broader repository metrics (may use different time windows)
- These metrics have intentionally different scopes per their reporting mandates
PR Metrics Consistency (Feb 5, 2026):
| Report | Total PRs | Merged PRs | Success Rate | Status |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Copilot Agent Analysis (#13858) | 59 | 45 | 76.3% | ✅ Valid |
| Copilot PR Merged Report (#13938) | - | 65 | - |
Analysis: The Copilot PR Merged Report shows 65 merged PRs while Copilot Agent Analysis shows 45. This requires investigation - they may be counting different time periods or PR types (agent vs all PRs).
Code Metrics Consistency:
| Report | Total LOC | Status | Trend |
|---|---|---|---|
| Daily Code Metrics - Feb 5 (#13888) | 771,088 | ✅ Valid | +2.4% (30d) |
| Daily Code Metrics - Feb 4 (#13766) | ~753,000 (estimated) | ✅ Valid | Steady growth |
Token Consumption:
| Report | Total Tokens | Total Cost | Workflow Runs | Avg Cost/Run |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Daily Token Report - Feb 5 (#13894) | 215,190,596 | $2,151.91 | 477 | $4.51 |
Status: ✅ Complete data, well-structured report
⚠️ Issues and Anomalies
1. PR Count Discrepancy
- Affected Reports: Copilot Agent Analysis ([copilot-agent-analysis] Daily Copilot Agent Analysis - 2026-02-05 #13858) vs Copilot PR Merged Report ([copilot-pr-merged-report] Daily Copilot PR Merged Report - 2026-02-05 #13938)
- Metric:
merged_prs(see scratchpad/metrics-glossary.md) - Description: Agent Analysis shows 45 merged PRs, PR Merged Report shows 65
- Expected: Should match if measuring same time period and scope
- Actual: 20-PR difference (44% discrepancy)
- Scope Analysis: May have different scopes - need to verify if one counts only agent PRs vs all PRs
- Severity: Medium (requires scope verification)
- Recommended Action: Verify report scopes and document in metrics glossary if intentional
2. Open Issues Variance
- Affected Reports: Multiple reports show different
open_issuescounts - Metric:
open_issues(should have same scope per glossary) - Description: Daily News (50) vs Copilot Agent (2) vs DeepReport (282)
- Scope Analysis: Likely different scopes - Daily News may filter by time period, Copilot Agent counts agent-related issues only
- Severity: Low (likely explained by different filters)
- Recommended Action: Document scope differences in each report's description
Data Quality Assessment
Strengths ✅
- Consistent Report Cadence: All major report types ran in the 48-hour window

💡 Recommendations
Process Improvements
- Standardize Metric Scopes: Add explicit scope documentation to each report (time range, filters applied)
- Cross-Reference Reports: Link related reports in their descriptions (e.g., Token Report links to Copilot Agent Analysis)
- Unified Metric Names: All reports should use canonical names from scratchpad/metrics-glossary.md
- Report Templates: Create templates for each report type to ensure consistent structure
Data Quality Actions
- Investigate PR Count Mismatch: Verify if Copilot Agent Analysis and PR Merged Report have different scopes
- Document Scope Differences: Update each report's description to explicitly state what it measures
- Add Timestamp Metadata: Include report generation timestamp and data collection window in all reports
- Metric Validation: Add automated checks to flag when same-scope metrics differ by >10%
Workflow Suggestions
- Create Report Registry: Maintain a living document listing all active daily reports and their purposes
- Add Health Checks: Monitor that all expected daily reports run successfully
- Consolidation Opportunity: Consider whether 9 triage runs per day could be consolidated
- Metadata Enrichment: Add workflow run IDs to all reports for easier debugging
