Introduction

Welcome to Runless

Runless is a CI observability platform for GitHub Actions. It watches your workflows and surfaces clear, actionable insights about performance, reliability, and cost — without requiring any changes to your workflow files.

What Runless Does

  • Observes your GitHub Actions runs via webhooks (no agent or workflow changes needed)
  • Analyzes patterns across runs: duration trends, failure rates, flaky tests, cache efficiency
  • Detects issues automatically and tells you exactly how to fix them
  • Tracks metrics over time so you can see if your CI is getting better or worse

Quick Start

Get up and running in under 5 minutes:

  1. Sign up (opens in a new tab) with your GitHub account
  2. Install the Runless GitHub App on your repositories
  3. Wait a few minutes for historical data to sync
  4. Start exploring your CI health dashboard

No configuration files, no workflow changes, no agents to install.

Want to try before installing? You can also add public repositories to evaluate Runless on any public GitHub repo — no app installation required.

Key Features

How It Works

Runless integrates with GitHub via a GitHub App. When you install the app:

  1. We receive webhook events for all workflow runs in real-time
  2. We fetch historical run data (last 30 days) to bootstrap your analytics
  3. We analyze the data and surface insights on your dashboard

Your code never leaves GitHub. We only see workflow metadata: run times, statuses, job names, and step durations.
