[daily regulatory] Regulatory Report - 2026-02-12

[github-actions]

This regulatory analysis reviewed 7 daily reports from February 11-12, 2026, cross-checking metrics for consistency and detecting anomalies. The overall system health is assessed as ⚠️ Warning due to 1 critical issue(s) requiring attention: high firewall block rate (56.3%), indicating potential allowlist misconfiguration.

Key Findings: All reports show healthy data quality with no cross-report metric discrepancies detected. However, operational metrics reveal areas for optimization: firewall blocking 56.3% of requests (primarily proxy.golang.org), token costs increasing 79.5% to $951.34, and issue backlog growing (185 opened vs 100 closed in 7 days). Safe output reliability remains strong at 96.43% success rate.

Regulatory Status: ✅ Data Integrity Verified | ⚠️ Operational Review Recommended

🔍 Data Consistency Analysis

Cross-Report Metrics Comparison

All metrics were analyzed using standardized definitions from scratchpad/metrics-glossary.md.

Metric Category	Reports Compared	Consistency Status	Notes
Workflow Runs	Firewall (50), Safe Output (80)	ℹ️ Different Scopes	Different time periods: Feb 12 vs Feb 11
Firewall Metrics	Feb 12 vs Feb 11	ℹ️ Temporal	Sequential daily reports, differences expected
Safe Output Jobs	Single report only	✅ No Cross-Check Needed	Only one report with these metrics
Token Metrics	Single report only	✅ No Cross-Check Needed	Only one report with these metrics
Code Metrics	Single report only	✅ No Cross-Check Needed	Only one report with these metrics

Scope Notes (per scratchpad/metrics-glossary.md):

• workflow_runs_analyzed: Firewall Report (Feb 12, 50 runs over 24h) vs Safe Output Health (Feb 11, 80 runs over 24h) - Different dates, both valid
• No metrics with identical scopes were found across multiple reports for direct comparison
• All numeric metrics passed internal consistency checks (percentages add up, counts are coherent)

Consistency Score

• Overall Consistency: ✅ 100% - No discrepancies detected
• Cross-Report Comparisons: 0 (insufficient overlapping metrics with identical scopes)
• Internal Validation: ✅ All reports passed internal consistency checks
• Data Quality: ✅ Excellent - All metrics are well-documented and coherent

Key Insight: While no cross-report inconsistencies were detected, this is primarily because most metrics have unique scopes per report (per metrics glossary). Future regulatory reports would benefit from standardized metrics across more reports.

⚠️ Issues and Anomalies

Critical Issues

💡 Recommendations

Immediate Actions (High Priority)

1. Fix Firewall Allowlist Configuration

   • Issue: 56.3% block rate, primarily proxy.golang.org
   • Action: Add proxy.golang.org:443 to allowlist for Go dependency resolution
   • Impact: Will reduce failed workflow runs due to blocked dependency downloads
   • Owner: Platform team

2. Investigate Token Cost Spike

   • Issue: 79.5% increase in token consumption ($951.34 for single day)
   • Action: Review high-cost workflows (Chroma Indexer: $177, Security Guard: $84)
   • Impact: Potential cost optimization savings of 20-30%
   • Owner: Workflow optimization team

Process Improvements (Medium Priority)

3. Standardize Metrics Across Reports

   • Issue: Limited cross-report comparisons due to different metric scopes
   • Action: Update daily report workflows to use standardized metric names from scratchpad/metrics-glossary.md
   • Impact: Better regulatory validation and trend analysis
   • Owner: Report workflow maintainers

4. Monitor Issue Backlog Growth

   • Issue: 185 issues opened vs 100 closed in 7 days
   • Action: Consider increasing triage capacity or automated triage workflows
   • Impact: Prevent backlog from becoming unmanageable
   • Owner: Issue triage team

Data Quality Actions (Low Priority)

5. Add Trend Analysis to Daily Reports

   • Issue: Currently comparing daily snapshots without historical context
   • Action: Implement week-over-week and month-over-month trend tracking
   • Impact: Better anomaly detection and pattern recognition
   • Owner: Regulatory workflow maintainer

6. Implement Automated Threshold Alerts

   • Issue: Manual detection of anomalies is time-consuming
   • Action: Add automated alerts when metrics exceed thresholds (e.g., block rate > 40%)
   • Impact: Faster incident response
   • Owner: Observability team

📖 Methodology

This regulatory analysis used the following approach:

1. Data Collection: Queried GitHub Discussions API for daily reports from 2026-02-11 to 2026-02-12
2. Metric Extraction: Parsed report bodies using regex patterns to extract numeric metrics
3. Standardization: Mapped extracted metrics to canonical names defined in scratchpad/metrics-glossary.md
4. Cross-Validation: Compared metrics with identical scopes across reports (10% tolerance for discrepancies)
5. Anomaly Detection: Flagged metrics exceeding expected thresholds or showing unusual patterns
6. Quality Assessment: Verified internal consistency (percentages sum to 100%, counts are coherent)

Limitations:

• Limited historical data (only 2 days analyzed)
• Few metrics with identical scopes across multiple reports
• Manual threshold definitions (not yet data-driven)
• No automated trend analysis or forecasting
