[Incident] Incident: github-pages deployment failure — Doc Build Deploy run #28636998429 #43102

Description

@github-actions

Incident Summary

Environment: github-pages
Status: failure
Detected: 2026-07-03T03:51:08Z
Triggering commit: 236beb0b14refactor: split compiler_types.go grab-bag into workflow_data.go and safe_outputs_config.go (#43071) by Copilot


Root Cause

The Doc Build - Deploy workflow (§28636998429) succeeded in building the documentation artifact but failed during the GitHub Pages deployment step. The error occurred in actions/deploy-pages while syncing files:

Current status: syncing_files
##[error]Deployment failed, try again later.

The build job completed successfully (all steps passed, artifact uploaded). The failure is isolated to the deploy job — specifically step 2 "Deploy to GitHub Pages".

Log excerpt from failed deploy step
Creating Pages deployment with payload:
{
  "artifact_id": 8057338934,
  "pages_build_version": "236beb0b144fac1ab9a1335a4cdd88c896cc9aa2",
  "oidc_token": "***"
}
Created deployment for 236beb0b144fac1ab9a1335a4cdd88c896cc9aa2, ID: 236beb0b144fac1ab9a1335a4cdd88c896cc9aa2
Current status: deployment_in_progress
Current status: syncing_files
##[error]Deployment failed, try again later.

Note: The subsequent re-run on sha 97b3d3a03f (Doc Build - Deploy §28637143957) shows action_required status (pending agent approval), and the deployment with sha 18b14b65e1 succeeded — suggesting this may have been a transient GitHub Pages infrastructure error.

Suggested Remediation

  1. Re-run the failed workflow on the 236beb0b14 commit to check if it was transient: gh run rerun 28636998429 --repo github/gh-aw
  2. Check GitHub Pages status at (githubstatus.com/redacted) for any ongoing incidents with Pages infrastructure.
  3. Verify current deployment — a later deployment (18b14b65e1) succeeded, so the site may already be up-to-date except for the most recent commit.
  4. If the issue persists on retry, investigate whether the artifact size or content changed with the recent refactor (compiler_types.go split) that could affect the doc build output.
