Vectis

GitHub Actions runners in disposable VMs on your own Mac, for people and agents.

Vectis runs every GitHub Actions job in a fresh virtual machine on your Apple Silicon Mac and deletes it when the job ends. You prepare an Ubuntu, macOS or Windows guest once; each job gets a clean copy.

Three parts work together:

• The Vectis app and its background service run on your Mac. The service owns the VMs, the disks and the local credentials. The app, the vectis CLI and the vectis-mcp server for agents are all clients of the same service.
• Your account at vectis.kerd.dev/connect links your Macs, your GitHub accounts and your repositories. It also relays commands when you control one Mac from another.
• The Vectis GitHub App lets Vectis see queued jobs for the repositories you connect and register a single-use runner for each one.

Build files and VM disks never leave your Mac. The only cloud traffic is coordination: which jobs are waiting, which Mac takes them, and what happened.

Start here

1. Install Vectis and check the requirements.
2. Follow the quickstart from an empty Mac to your first job.
3. Point your workflows at Vectis with the right runs-on label.

For agents

Agents use the same tools as you. See Agents to install the skill and connect the MCP server. Append .md to any page URL to read its Markdown source; llms.txt indexes every page and llms-full.txt contains all of them.

Run it yourself

Vectis is open source. Self-hosting explains how to build it from source and run your own backend, website and GitHub App.
