Built for security-conscious teams

Every feature designed with isolation and security in mind.

VM Isolation

Each runner gets its own isolated VM. Complete isolation means no cross-contamination between jobs.

Secure Token Storage

GitHub tokens are stored securely in your macOS Keychain. Never in plain text, never in your database.

Menu Bar App

Native macOS app shows fleet status at a glance. See which VMs are running without leaving your workflow.

Fleet Management

Create, destroy, and monitor runners with simple CLI commands. Customize VM resources per runner.

Health Monitoring

Automatic health checks every 60 seconds. Know immediately when a runner goes offline.

Built with Rust

Fast, reliable, and memory-safe. No runtime dependencies, single binary deployment.

How it works

GAR sits between GitHub and your VMs, orchestrating the entire runner lifecycle.
