About GitHub Actions Runner
Stop waiting in queues for GitHub-hosted runners. Run your CI/CD workflows directly on your Mac with complete control over the environment, tools, and resources.
Your Hardware, Your Speed: Workflows run on your Mac's CPU and memory — no shared infrastructure, no cold starts, no concurrency limits. Push a commit and your job starts immediately on hardware you own.
Full Docker Support: Enable Docker inside the runner to run container-based workflow steps and actions. Lawn's VM-based isolation makes this safe and simple — no host socket tricks required.
Stays Registered: Runner registration persists across restarts. The runner reconnects to GitHub automatically without re-registering each time it starts.
Repo and Org Runners: Register as a repository runner for a specific project, or as an organization runner to handle jobs across all your repos. Both modes are supported.
Private Builds: Your source code never leaves your Mac. Build and test private repositories without sending code to third-party build servers.
