Workspace Runtime Audit

Warning

Do not run this script unless specifically instructed to do so by Coder support or engineering.

Always run this script from a postgres user with read-only access to the database.

A SQL script that analyzes workspace builds to determine how long each workspace spent in a "running" state. It tracks state transitions (start/stop/delete) and calculates the cumulative runtime, only counting time spent inside the audit window period.

Usage

1: Edit the date range in workspace-runtime-audit.sql:

start_time TIMESTAMPTZ := '2025-12-01 00:00:00+00';
end_time TIMESTAMPTZ := '2025-12-31 23:59:59+00';

2: Run against your Coder database:

psql -d coder -f scripts/workspace-runtime-audit/workspace-runtime-audit.sql

3: Review the output csv at workspace_usage.csv.

Output

Column Type Description
workspace_id timestamptz Name of the workspace
workspace_created_at timestamptz When the workspace was originally created
usage_hours int Total number of usage hours within the time window
