# gh-aw detection statistics - 2026-09-06 (UTC)

Repository: `github/gh-aw`
Window: `2026-09-06T00:00:00Z` .. `2026-09-06T23:59:59Z`
API requests: 1470, rate-limit pauses: 1
Data complete: yes

## Totals

| Metric | Count |
|---|---|
| Workflow runs in window | 1339 |
| Agentic runs (`*.lock.yml`) | 909 |
| Runs with a `detection` job | 579 |
| ... using the external detector | 578 |
| ... using the built-in detector | 1 |
| ... detector could not be determined | 0 |
| Agentic runs without a `detection` job | 330 |

All rates below are over the **external detector** population (578 runs). Since gh-aw #54111 the external detector is the compile-time default; a run counts as external when its `detection` job showed the `Install threat-detect binary` step, when another run of the same workflow did that day, or when the workflow is `.lock.yml` and no run showed the built-in shape (a completed detection job with steps but no marker). Runs on a workflow that opted out with `features: gh-aw-detection: false` count as built-in.

## Detection job outcomes

| Outcome | Count | Rate |
|---|---|---|
| `success` | 306 | 52.94% |
| `skipped` | 272 | 47.06% |

**Error rate (failure/timed_out/action_required): 0%**

## Verdict availability

| State | Meaning | Count |
|---|---|---|
| `present` | detection artifact downloaded and parsed | 231 |
| `absent` | detection job ran but published no artifact (soft failure) | 69 |
| `skipped` | detection job was skipped or was still running (nothing to fetch) | 272 |
| `unreadable` | artifact zip could not be unpacked | 6 |

Green detection jobs that published no verdict: **69** (detection steps are `continue-on-error`, so a missing verdict artifact is the only reliable signal for these).

## Detection results

| Result | Count |
|---|---|
| Runs with a parsed verdict | 231 |
| Clean (no threat) | 231 |
| Any threat | 0 |
| `prompt_injection` | 0 |
| `secret_leak` | 0 |
| `malicious_patch` | 0 |

**Threat rate (of runs with a verdict): 0%**
