Claude Code and Codex can push dozens of PRs a day now. Writing the code takes minutes, and the rest of the time goes to waiting on CI, the checks and tests GitHub runs every time you push. Nine changes took each PR's CI 𝗳𝗿𝗼𝗺 𝘂𝗽 𝘁𝗼 𝟰𝟬 𝗺𝗶𝗻𝘂𝘁𝗲𝘀 𝗱𝗼𝘄𝗻 𝘁𝗼 𝟮. One step was having an agent pull the last 150 CI runs and split every job into three parts: waiting for a machine, setup, and actually running. That alone showed that half the test jobs 𝘄𝗲𝗿𝗲𝗻'𝘁 𝘂𝘀𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗱𝗲𝗽𝗲𝗻𝗱𝗲𝗻𝗰𝘆 𝗰𝗮𝗰𝗵𝗲 at all, a bug that had been sitting there for a whole year. Send this prompt to Claude Code or Codex to find out where your CI time goes, then cut it down one piece at a time 👇 "Audit this repo's CI: 1. Use gh to pull the last 150 CI runs and split each job's time into three parts: waiting in the queue for a machine, setup (checkout, installing dependencies, restoring the cache), and actually running the task. List the 5 slowest jobs and how many seconds each part takes. 2. Check these 9 things one by one: queueing on the default runners; slow lint; slow typechecking; tests that aren't sharded, or machines that are too small; every test file reloading the whole app; slow setup (cache misses, clones that aren't blobless, more parallel tasks than cores); jobs that don't run in parallel; every PR running the full test suite; no local checks before push. 3. For each problem, tell me how many seconds it costs now, which line of which file to change, and roughly how much it would save. List the ones that cost more money (new runners, bigger machines) or run fewer tests separately for me to decide. Give me the report first. Don't change anything."
