The CI retry loop that burnt through $400 of API credits overnight
by•
Pushed a branch right before logging off for the day. Turns out a flaky test suite got stuck in a continuous rerun loop on the build server.
Every single failed run hit a third-party translation API to generate mock data.
Woke up the next morning to an email from finance asking why our usage dashboard was completely depleted and all automated builds were paused.
