Gitea Act Runner
Auto-configuring, self-registering Gitea Actions runner with auto-updates.
GiteaDockerCI/CDact_runner
Highlights
- Zero-touch registration via a one-time token
- Self-updates on a schedule, no human in the loop
- Drop-in replacement for the upstream image
Self-hosting Gitea is great until you have to babysit the Actions runner. Mine kept getting wedged after upstream Gitea releases. This image takes care of registration on first boot, watches for new runner releases, and rolls itself forward without losing in-flight jobs.
