# GitHub API usage is unusually high

We've detected that the GitHub API used rate limit is higher than usual. This could be an indication of a problem in the ALI system causing higher than expected API calls.

## Action

Review the rate limit metrics as well as API call count from the ALI for each API call to see if anything unusual is occurring.
