Anthropic reports CI jobs grew 25x in six months as agents took over 80% of code authoring, and the single-writer service behind its test selection failed in stages: 70 days of relief from a bigger machine, then 29, then less than one. Here is what that curve costs on Azure Pipelines versus GitHub Actions, and which architecture in your own pipeline breaks first.

TypeScript 7.0 reached general availability on 8 July 2026 with the Go-native compiler, cutting full builds by 8x to 12x and memory use by up to a quarter on Microsoft's published benchmarks. The release ships without a stable programmatic API until 7.1, which blocks typescript-eslint, framework template checking and Next.js detection, so the right move depends on which of three migration profiles your repo fits.

The honest cost model for self-hosted GitHub Actions runners on Azure — break-even math against hosted runners, when self-hosting is a trap, and the ephemeral scaleset architecture that keeps them safe in production.
