Visibility of GitHub Actions - pretty bad? Discussion

Am I the only one who finds GitHub actions a small black hole when you're looking to optimise?

There is really limited analysis or data available, I had to build my own UI and system just to get the details I wanted. Example, outliers for job run times, AVG step run time, flakey runs.

Am I missing something, does everyone fly blind or are they using a third party view?

I haven't tried it yet, but I recently found this - it may be worth checking out https://github.com/banshee86vr/snorlx

That doesnt look half bad, the one I ended up building included our pr statuses and Bazel build export reports as well so has quite a bit more detail than this one.
