Mergify CI Insights now supports Jenkins. With one plugin install, you get dashboards for flaky jobs, slow builds, reruns, and job costs in hours. Turn your Jenkins pipeline from a black box into clear visibility — and ship with confidence.

We’re excited to share that Mergify CI Insights now supports Jenkins.

For years, Jenkins has powered some of the biggest CI/CD pipelines in the world. But as teams know all too well, running jobs is one thing — understanding them is another. Flaky jobs, slow builds, endless reruns… the pain is real. Until now, Jenkins teams had little visibility into what was actually slowing them down.

That changes today.

The Problem

If you’re running Jenkins, you probably know this feeling:

  • A job fails, but only sometimes.

  • A build that should take 10 minutes takes 40.

  • You rerun, and rerun again, until you see green — without ever knowing what really went wrong.

Jenkins does its job: it runs pipelines. But it doesn't tell you which jobs are flaky, which ones are slowing your merges, or how much engineering time is being burned on retries.

The result? Lost flow, frustrated developers, and a pipeline that feels like a black box.

The Solution: CI Insights for Jenkins

With today's release, Jenkins jobs can now flow directly into Mergify CI Insights.

All it takes is one plugin install — no YAML edits, no custom dashboards, no manual instrumentation. From there, CI Insights does the heavy lifting:

  • Flaky job detection → spot jobs that randomly fail and waste time

  • Slow job tracking → see which builds drag your pipeline down

  • Rerun visibility → know when “just one more retry” is eating your day

  • Job costs in hours → measure impact on engineering time, not just pass/fail

  • Dashboards and trends → real-time visibility across all your Jenkins jobs

How It Works

The Jenkins plugin hooks into job events and exports them to Mergify. CI Insights processes those traces in real time and turns them into dashboards you can explore.

In minutes, you’ll go from raw logs and retries… to seeing exactly which jobs slow you down, which ones flake, and how much time it costs your team. Curious? Read the docs.

Why It Matters

For Jenkins teams, this means:

  • Fewer surprises → Know which jobs are unreliable before they block a merge.

  • Faster shipping → Cut down merge delays caused by reruns.

  • Happier engineers → Debug with clarity instead of ritual.

Think of it as production-level observability, but built for CI — and made simple with Mergify.

Try It Today

Jenkins support in CI Insights is available now.

👉 Sign up for CI Insights and install the plugin to start seeing your Jenkins jobs in a whole new light.

Stop rerunning in the dark. Start shipping with confidence.

Why PostgreSQL Ignored Our Index (and What the Planner Was Thinking)

PostgreSQL doesn’t "ignore" your indexes, it just does the math differently. We dive into how the planner weighs cost, why it sometimes chooses sequential scans, and how we tuned our queries to make peace with it.

The Magic (and Mayhem) Behind Our Config Deprecation Transformers

We built a "self-healing" system that fixes deprecated configs by opening PRs automatically. It worked like magic, until it didn't. Here's what we learned about the thin line between elegant automation and uncontrollable complexity.
