What is Github Runner?

Github Runner — self-hosted application you control. Launch a private Github Runner instance on Hostwares with one click, custom domain support and full container access. Self-hosting Github Runner on Hostwares gives you a private instance on dedicated resources — CPU, RAM and NVMe you chose — with automatic HTTPS, backups and scaling when you need it. Unlike SaaS, your data stays on infrastructure you control.

What you get with managed Github Runner

Every Github Runner instance includes the Hostwares platform — not just the container.

One-click deploy

Github Runner is provisioned, configured and started for you. No compose file to write, no ports to wire up — Hostwares pulls the github-runner image and wires storage.

SSL included

Every Github Runner deployment gets HTTPS automatically, on a free hostwares.app subdomain or your own domain with auto-renewing Let's Encrypt.

Dedicated resources

Github Runner runs on the CPU, RAM and SSD of the pack you pick — not squeezed onto a shared box with everyone else. Resize when you need more.

Full container access

It is your container: exec into Github Runner, read files, tail logs and set environment variables whenever you need to.

Status and logs

Start, stop and restart Github Runner from the dashboard and read real container logs when something misbehaves.

Managed by HW

Ask our AI to deploy Github Runner, change its settings or debug it — from the dashboard, the CLI, or Claude and Cursor over MCP.
