Public GitHub Repos

WarpBuild works by registering itself as a self-hosted runner in the Default runner group (id 1) for your GitHub Organization. However, GitHub disables the ability to use self-hosted runners, including managed ones such as WarpBuild, in public repositories by default.

Enable WarpBuild runners in public repositories​

Here are the steps to enable access to WarpBuild runners in public repositories in your organization:

  1. Go to your GitHub Organization default runner settings page here: https://github.com/organizations/[YOUR_ORG]/settings/actions/runner-groups/1
  2. Check the box for Allow public repositories

GitHub Enterprise​

GitHub Enterprise supports creation of multiple runner groups. The WarpBuild runners are added to the Default runner group (id 1).

Security​

WarpBuild runners run the same tools and versions as GitHub-hosted runners. WarpBuild runners provide the same safety as GitHub hosted runners.
