Requirements for self-hosted runner machines

You can use a machine as a self-hosted runner as long as it meets these requirements:

You can install and run the self-hosted runner application on the machine. See Supported operating systems and Supported processor architectures.
The machine can communicate with GitHub Actions.
The machine has enough hardware resources for the type of workflows you plan to run. The self-hosted runner application itself only requires minimal resources.
If you want to run workflows that use Docker container actions or service containers, you must use a Linux machine and Docker must be installed.
