*comments API timed out on today's high PR volume; not collected for the rebuild days either.

Trend: 📉 Success rate declined from ~80% (last 2 days) to 58.9% today, alongside a volume spike (35→81 PRs). 5 of the 30 closures were [WIP] PRs superseded by follow-up attempts on the same task; the rest were a broad mix of closed refactor/fix/container-scan attempts rather than one dominant failure cause.

Notable PRs

No PRs remained open >24h. Closed-without-merge count (30) is elevated vs. the prior two days (14, 5); notable WIP-superseded closures: #48476, #48501, #48512, #48613.

Key Insights

• Success rate dropped sharply (80%→58.9%) on a day with more than double the usual PR volume — worth watching whether volume itself is driving lower completion quality, or if this is a one-day anomaly.
• Historical data gaps for 07-25 through 07-27 were rebuilt using calendar-day (UTC) grouping rather than the rolling 24h window used elsewhere; treat those three entries as approximate for cross-day comparison.
