A Docker image that packages GitHub Actions self-hosted runners with Docker-in-Docker support, published to Docker Hub for x86_64 and arm64. It is built nightly from upstream runner releases and configured via environment variables.

Use cases

• run self-hosted github actions runners in docker
• docker-in-docker github actions runner image
• scale ephemeral CI runners on kubernetes
• arm64 self-hosted github actions runner
• self-host runners without polluting the host machine
• run github actions CI on my own servers

When to choose

• you need self-hosted GitHub Actions runners deployed as containers, including ephemeral or autoscaled setups
• you need arm64 or multi-architecture runner images
• you want Docker available inside the runner via Docker-in-Docker

When to avoid

• you rely on GitHub Actions job services or containerd-based features, which are unsupported on self-hosted runners
• you cannot gate workflow changes, since environment variables are vulnerable to exfiltration from malicious PRs
• you want a fully managed runner solution without maintaining container images
