🚨 Critical: 100% Failure Rate (Should be Disabled)

These 4 workflows have never succeeded and should be disabled immediately:

1. Daily Project Performance Summary Generator (Using Safe Inputs) - 4 failed runs
2. Daily File Diet - 1 failed run
3. The Daily Repository Chronicle - 1 failed run
4. Copilot PR Conversation NLP Analysis - 1 failed run

Note: These failures haven't incurred significant costs yet ($0.00 wasted), but they indicate broken workflows that should be fixed or disabled.

✅ Success Rate Overview

✅ Success   (350 runs): ███████████████████████████████████████████████ 94.9%
❌ Failure   (  9 runs): █ 2.4%
⏸️  Cancelled ( 10 runs): █ 2.7%

Total: 369 completed runs (153 still in progress)

Portfolio Health: Excellent overall success rate of 94.9%, with minimal failures (2.4%) and cancellations (2.7%).
