Is GitHub down everywhere, or just for you?
Our probes reached GitHub successfully from every monitoring region in the last check round.

What to check when GitHub misbehaves
GitHub is a developer platform in our developer tools catalog. Services like this rarely fail as one block — these pieces can break on their own, so identifying which one is affected usually explains what you are seeing.

Our automated checks measure reachability and response time of GitHub's public endpoint. Component level detail above reflects what users of this kind of service typically report, not a vendor status feed.

About GitHub
GitHub is a development platform for version control and collaboration, hosting millions of repositories using Git. Developers use tools like GitHub Actions for automation, Pull Requests for code review, and the Web Interface for project management. Outages often break CI/CD pipelines, prevent code pushes, or cause the repository browser to time out. Since a disruption stops development cycles, Rimetry provides an external perspective by checking the health of the platform’s core services from multiple geographical locations to validate current downtime reports.
GitHub (github.com) is a developer tools service monitored continuously by rimetry from multiple global regions. We probe its public endpoints every 60 seconds to detect outages, latency spikes, and regional degradations the moment they happen.
Right now GitHub is reporting as operational across our probes, with an average response time of 238 ms and 100.00% uptime over the last 24 hours. Most users connecting to github.com are seeing it work normally.
Common causes of disruption for services like GitHub include backend API failures, region-specific routing problems at the CDN or ISP layer, expired TLS certificates, DNS misconfigurations, and capacity spikes during major events. rimetry combines automated probes, vendor status feeds, and verified community reports to give you a single high-confidence answer instead of guessing.

What is GitHub?
Code hosting and collaboration.
GitHub is part of our Developer Tools category. You can also review current trending outages across the internet.
Common issues
- · Elevated API error rates or timeouts
- · Builds and deployments queuing or failing
- · Dashboard slow or unavailable
- · Webhook deliveries delayed
Similar patterns often surface across other developer tools providers — cross-check against the global outage map.
Troubleshooting
- · Check your own error rate and status codes before assuming a platform outage
- · Retry with exponential backoff — 429 and 5xx are often short-lived
- · Confirm the token or API key hasn't expired or been rotated
- · Test from a different network or region to rule out routing
- · Compare the API and the dashboard: they can degrade independently
- · Check GitHub's official social channels
Not sure whether it's you or the service? Run a live speed test, check what your IP looks like from the edge, or watch for regional trouble on the worldwide outage map. For the wider picture, browse recent incidents or filter down to developer tools.
