## Timeline of updates

- **resolved** 2025-08-20 16:37 UTC: Between 15:49 and 16:37 UTC on 20 Aug 2025, creating a new GitHub account via the web signup page consistently returned server errors, and users were unable to complete signup during this 48-minute window. We detected the issue at 16:04 UTC and restored normal signup functionality by 16:37 UTC. A recent change to signup flow logic caused all attempts to error. The change was rolled back to restore service. This exposed a gap in our test coverage that we are fixing.
