Notable PRs

23 PRs closed without merge (33% of 71). Of these, 7 were WIP-superseded placeholders never developed beyond the initial "I will get started" comment (#50322, #50321, #50319, #50317, #50290, #50246, #50150); the other 16 had substantive bodies indicating real but abandoned/redirected work. 9 PRs remain open, all under 24h old (oldest 13.3h) — none stuck.

Key Insights

• Success rate has fallen every day for 4 straight days (87.1% → 80.0% → 72.9% → 62.9%) even as agent turnaround time has gotten faster — worth checking whether faster completions are trading off against correctness/scope.
• Closure rate (33%) is the highest of the last 4 days; investigate the 16 non-placeholder closures for common failure patterns.
