// Overview

GitHub Status (RSS and Status API)

GitHub's public status page publishes current component status and incident history for GitHub.com as RSS and Atom feeds, and as a keyless JSON Status API with summary, status, incident and scheduled-maintenance endpoints.

Coverage

GitHub.com services (Git operations, API requests, Actions and more), items as incidents are opened and updated. The RSS channel is titled "GitHub Status - Incident History".

Verdict

An outage trigger for agents and pipelines that depend on GitHub. Licence: Custom (no grant): the Status API docs say "The following documentation is provided to let users of the GitHub status page programmatically access various elements on the page." No reuse licence for the incident text is named. The status page is free and needs no account; account-specific service health is a separate product. Rate limits: Not stated. Signal Lab links only.
