GitHub, under continuous watch.
If GitHub's nameservers moved tonight, every CI pipeline on earth would follow the new records without asking. DomainDrift reads this estate about every 5 minutes and signs each reading - here is the live record.
The briefing2026-10-06
The estate held steady with zero material changes across the window. Five domains maintained their configuration without update.
GitHub Pages hosts github.io and githubstatus.com while answering web queries. Cloudflare runs github.com and githubusercontent.com, both checking web responses. Microsoft 365 handles mail for github.com. No mail providers are published for the other four domains. Expiry dates range from three days to nearly a year.
