Usage and savings
Minutes, cost estimates, and what optimized checks saved.
The Usage page covers every job in your connected repos, whichever runner took it.
Actions minutes
Section titled “Actions minutes”For each connected GitHub account: minutes used this month against the plan’s included minutes, and how fast they’re going. It’s the same number a minutes limit uses, and the page says when an account’s minutes can’t be read.
Short jobs
Section titled “Short jobs”GitHub bills each job by the minute, rounded up, so a job that finishes in 5 seconds pays for a whole minute. The page shows, per repo, how many jobs finished in under a minute and what that round-up cost. These are good candidates for optimized checks or a machine.
Estimates use GitHub’s list prices for private repos. Standard runners in public repos and self-hosted runners are free.
Saved by optimized checks
Section titled “Saved by optimized checks”Each optimized check counts as a job on ubuntu-latest that would have billed at least a minute.
Providers
Section titled “Providers”The Providers page shows how much of your CI ran on each provider, with cost estimates at list prices, and which providers you haven’t used yet. See Providers.
