GitHub outage, Jul 16, 2026

12 vendors posted 11 incidents between 21:00 on Jul 16 and 00:00 on Jul 17 UTC, against about 10 incidents from 8 vendors in the same hours on an ordinary week. 8 vendors named GitHub in 7 incidents (5 of them blamed it). GitHub posted “Claude Fable 5 experiencing degraded performance” at 21:05 UTC.

Observed, not verified. A line means a vendor’s incident named another vendor, or started in the same window. It is not a proven cause.

Times are UTC; lags are from when GitHub posted (21:05).

Vendors that named GitHub

In their own words. “Blames” means a causal phrase sits next to the name (“due to”, “upstream provider”…).
