ALT Two bars comparing the same build on a machine with a slow system clock. Before runs the full width in grey; after stops a little over half way in brand blue. Underneath, in the same blue: up to 45%.

ALT Three bars showing how long each fix to a home-built test selection service lasted before it failed again: more cores 70 days, sharding 29 days, daily restarts less than 1 day. The last bar is a red sliver.

ALT Three stages down a spine. A trusted build writes to the trusted namespace and reads only from it. An untrusted build reads both namespaces and writes only to the untrusted one. The release pipeline reads trusted only, so nothing from an untrusted build can reach it.

ALT Two dark slabs on pale paper, headed: where the agent stops. The upper slab, changes, reads build config and build scripts. The lower slab, refuses, reads plugins, unrelated logic, your Gradle version.

ALT Two windows in sequence. Before the build: a GET on /repos/OWNER/REPO/actions/runs, with created_at and run_started_at lit up in the response. Inside the build: .mvn/extensions.xml with the develocity-maven-extension lines being added.
