A shared actions runner for everyone

Publication date: 2026-07-24

We’re happy to announce that OpenCommit now offers a shared actions runner, available to every project on the platform.

Until now, running Forgejo Actions meant setting up your own runner. Not anymore: your workflows can now run directly on our shared runner, without the need to host or maintain anything yourself.

Just add a workflow to your project and your CI/CD pipelines will start executing.

A few things to keep in mind: we’re starting with a single shared runner, so builds are scheduled on a first-come, first-served basis. We’re still a small platform, run by a non-profit with limited resources, so please be considerate. Keep your builds lean, avoid long-running jobs, and don’t use the runner for anything other than what you need.

As the platform grows and the demand is there, we’ll look into adding more runners and capacity.
