## Updates from Braintrust
### 2026-04-13 21:38 UTC: investigating
We experienced a brief period of degraded performance on the Braintrust hosted control plane due to elevated database load. The issue was caused by an internal traffic spike to a specific query pattern.

### 2026-04-13 21:51 UTC: resolved
Performance quickly returned to normal when the problematic query was identified and remediated, and we are implementing safeguards to prevent similar future issues.
