Update timeline

  1. investigating Mar 06, 2026, 04:15 PM UTC

    We are investigating an issue with some GitHub app reports not starting.

  2. investigating Mar 06, 2026, 05:50 PM UTC

    GitHub is having a Webhooks incident which may be impacting webhook deliveries to Socket. We are working to confirm this.

  3. investigating Mar 06, 2026, 08:53 PM UTC

    We have investigated further and still believe this to be a problem with GitHub upstream. We are working on implementing mitigations. If a PR has a stuck check run, please try closing and reopening the PR. This will cause GitHub to send another webhook, which should be delivered.
