CI Minutes Guard

Tags CI runs to the agent session that triggered them and catches runaway fix-test-fail loops.

Price: $10/seat-mo

Included free

  • Manual session-to-CI-run tagging (GitHub Actions)
  • Session Cost webview: CI minutes for a tagged session

Unlocked with a license

  • Runaway-loop detection across consecutive CI runs
  • True cost rollup: LLM tokens + CI minutes in one number
  • Auto-pause threshold prompt after N consecutive failures

Roadmap

  • Auto-tagging via push-hash correlation is planned but not implemented yet — see Scope below. Today, tagging a session to a CI run is always a manual pick from the last 5 runs, for free and licensed users alike.

Getting a license

Open the CI Minutes Guard sidebar (activity bar icon) and click Get License. After purchase you'll receive a license key — paste it into the sidebar and click Activate License. Keys are machine-locked; use Move to another machine… in the sidebar before reinstalling on a new device.

Requirements

This extension needs: GitHub Actions API (PAT with repo + actions:read scope).

Scope

This is a manual-tagging MVP: you pick the CI run yourself from the last 5 runs on a repo, there's no webhook or push-hash auto-correlation, and only GitHub Actions is supported (no other CI providers). Token and cost figures are estimates, not billing-accurate numbers. Your token is stored with VS Code's secret storage and is never written to settings.
