As part of that recovery, we ran a large database migration, which caused replication delays on several replica hosts.\n\nAlthough those replicas were not serving user traffic, our safeguards correctly treated the elevated replication lag as a signal to slow down writes to the affected database cluster. As a result, some pull request background processing was temporarily delayed. That processing is responsible for sending the internal events that Copilot agents use to begin work, so affected agents did not start until the database replicas caught up.\n\nThe system recovered once replication lag returned to normal and pull request processing resumed. We are reviewing how this safeguard interacts with recovery migrations so we can reduce the chance of similar secondary impact during future incident recovery work.\n\nMay ` 7`, `06:14` UTC\n\n**Update** - Copilot code review and cloud agents are starting again for pull requests, we are monitoring for full recovery.\n\nMay ` 7`, `06:13` UTC\n\n**Monitoring** - The degradation has been mitigated. We are monitoring to ensure stability.\n\nMay ` 7`, `05:02` UTC\n\n**Investigating** - We are investigating reports of impacted performance for some GitHub services.", "url": "https://wpnews.pro/news/ccr-and-cca-failing-to-start-for-pr-comments", "canonical_source": "https://www.githubstatus.com/incidents/qp0lxr014sw8", "published_at": "2026-05-07 06:56:16+00:00", "updated_at": "2026-05-27 01:34:21.901575+00:00", "lang": "en", "topics": ["ai-agents", "ai-products", "ai-tools", "ai-infrastructure", "large-language-models"], "entities": ["Copilot Cloud Agent", "Copilot Code Review Agent", "GitHub"], "alternates": {"html": "https://wpnews.pro/news/ccr-and-cca-failing-to-start-for-pr-comments", "markdown": "https://wpnews.pro/news/ccr-and-cca-failing-to-start-for-pr-comments.md", "text": "https://wpnews.pro/news/ccr-and-cca-failing-to-start-for-pr-comments.txt", "jsonld": "https://wpnews.pro/news/ccr-and-cca-failing-to-start-for-pr-comments.jsonld"}}
