| Caveats | core-hours: a 2-core machine burns 2/hour, so 120 core-hours = 60 real hours on the smallest machine. IMPORTANT UNIT CLARIFICATION 2026-09-16 — THE HOURS ARE NOT WALL-CLOCK HOURS. The docs table reads "120 hrs", but a separate table gives an "Included usage multiplier" per machine type: 2-core = 2, 4-core = 4, 8-core = 8, 16-core = 16. So the smallest machine consumes TWO units per hour and 120 units is about 60 wall-clock hours on a 2-core codespace — and roughly 7.5 hours on a 16-core one. An agent reading "120 hours" off the plan table would plan for at least twice what it gets. The page's own example: "the compute cost of using a codespace for an hour on a 16-core machine is eight times greater than a 2-core machine." |
No measured example — this row is evidence: documented: it states what the provider's own page advertised on the date shown, and this worker holds no credential to call it. The provider's documentation is the source: https://docs.github.com/en/billing/concepts/product-billing/github-codespaces
