GitHub auto-deploys for a monorepo service stopped applying stored rootDirectory and railway.json during the 2026-08-17 GitHub/Railway incidents and have not recovered.
Service settings: rootDirectory=/backend, railwayConfigFile=/backend/railway.json, builder=NIXPACKS. Auto-deploy is on. Railway GitHub App has code access, access in the selected repo, no pending permissions banner. Reconnected the repo in Source. Same break on sibling service (was DOCKERFILE at root file, now RAILPACK with no root) at the same timestamps.
Last good GitHub deploy: 2026-08-17T02:52:21Z, NIXPACKS, root=/backend, configFile=/backend/railway.json.
First bad GitHub deploy: 2026-08-17T15:24:08Z, RAILPACK, root empty, configFile empty. That is during GitHub incident zkxwbgr0cnmx (archive/raw downloads ~50% error) and Railway GitHub Auto-Deploys partial outage.
Later GitHub / latest-commit deploys, all missing root and configFile. CLI railway up from repo root still works. CLI user gets Not Authorized on gitHubRepoAccessAvailable / githubRepo / githubWritableScopes. environmentTriggersDeploy previously returned “Resource not accessible by integration.”
Need GitHub sourced deploys to apply the stored root and config file again, as they did before 15:24 UTC on Aug 17.
