Hosted agent builds failing in US East

### Summary An issue with the image registry which powers our hosted agents offering temporarily caused new hosted agent builds in US East to fail.

Agents already running were unaffected, as were all sessions, calls, and other regions. Customers who were impacted would have seen their deploy fail with “unable to deploy agent: an error occurred while building your agent, please try again”. ### Mitigations and Follow-ups * We are improving alerting on build failures. * We are improving

We pushed a second mitigation at 22:14 UTC and all US East builds have been successful since 22:25 UTC. We will follow up with a postmortem describing the timeline, root cause, and follow ups as soon as possible.

The total build error rate has decreased significantly due to the mitigation, but a small percentage of builds in US East are still failing. We are continuing to monitor and will follow up with another update as soon as possible.

Monitoring2026-08-14 21:15 UTC

We have deployed a mitigation and builds are now successful. We will continue monitoring while we collect any further details to share.

New hosted agent builds are failing in US East. Existing agent workloads are not affected. We are currently deploying a mitigation and will follow up with more information shortly.

Follow LiveKit

Your coding agent knows when LiveKit is down, and tells you when a failure is theirs, not yours. You can also get LiveKit incidents in a feed reader or in Slack.

Prompt
Install the outages.live MCP server, so that when something breaks you can tell if the cause is a provider we depend on and not my code. It reads the official status pages of cloud, AI, payment and developer providers and gives you their incidents as MCP tools.

Add it as a remote MCP server named "outages" at https://outages.cc/mcp (Streamable HTTP, no authentication), with your CLI command or your MCP config file.

Then:
1. Make sure it connects and shows the tools get_provider, list_feed and send_feedback.
2. Call get_provider with "livekit" and tell me if LiveKit has a problem right now.
3. From now on, when a call to a third-party service fails or becomes slow, call get_provider for that service before you change my code.

Paste this into any coding agent. It adds the server with its own MCP setup.
