Skipbox

راهنماها: صورت‌حساب و رانرهای GitHub Actions

GitHub برای Actions چه هزینه‌ای می‌گیرد، چرا جاب‌ها با تمام شدن بودجه متوقف می‌شوند، و از چند دقیقه در ماه به بالا رانر با قیمت ثابت صورت‌حساب کمتری دارد.

  • Actions Runner Controller vs a managed runner service: which for a small team?

    Actions Runner Controller (ARC) is free software you run on your own Kubernetes cluster: two Helm charts, a runner image you build, and a reinstall for every upgrade. A small team gets the same free GitHub minutes from a managed runner. Skipbox is one for a flat $39 a month with unlimited minutes: change one runs-on line.

  • docker compose pulls every image on every GitHub Actions job: how to stop pulling the same images

    Each GitHub Actions job starts on a new VM with no Docker images, so docker compose up pulls Postgres, Redis and every other service image again. docker save with actions/cache only moves the download, inside GitHub's 10 GB. On a runner that keeps its disk the images are already there. Skipbox is that runner for a flat $39 a month: change one runs-on line.

  • GitHub Actions concurrency limits: why pull requests queue at busy hours, and how to run more jobs at once without Enterprise

    GitHub-hosted runners run 20 jobs at once on GitHub Free, 40 on Pro, 60 on Team and 500 on Enterprise, across the whole account. Past that, jobs queue. Self-hosted runners don't count against the limit. Skipbox is a managed one: move your heaviest jobs with one runs-on line, for a flat $39 a month with unlimited minutes.

  • GitHub Actions vs CircleCI vs GitLab CI cost for a 10-person startup, and what to budget for CI/CD

    GitHub Actions, CircleCI and GitLab CI all bill CI by the minute, so a startup's CI budget is its minutes times a rate, and it grows with every push. For a 10-person team at 20,000 minutes a month on 4 vCPU: $222 on GitHub, $300 on CircleCI. Staying on GitHub Actions with a flat-priced runner fixes the number: Skipbox is $39 a month with unlimited minutes.

  • "Waiting for a runner to pick up this job": why GitHub Actions jobs stay queued, and a runner that's always there

    A GitHub Actions job stays queued when no free runner matches its runs-on labels: a wrong label, a self-hosted runner that is offline or busy, or the account's limit on jobs at once. Skipbox is a managed runner that is health-checked and rebuilt for you, for a flat $39 a month with unlimited minutes: at 20,000 minutes on 4 vCPU, $183 a month less than GitHub.

  • Are self-hosted runners safe for private repositories? GitHub's hardening rules, done for you

    A self-hosted GitHub Actions runner keeps what earlier jobs left and can be compromised for good by one bad job. GitHub's guidance: a runner for one job, a clean machine, separate machines for code you don't trust. Skipbox does all three on your account's own machine for a flat $39 a month, with a fresh VM for every job when you turn on Clean every job.

  • Android Gradle build slow in GitHub Actions: Gradle cache, build cache, heap and cores

    An Android Gradle build in GitHub Actions is slow because a fresh VM starts with an empty Gradle User Home, Gradle's build cache is off by default, its heap defaults to 512 MB, and a private repository's ubuntu-latest has 2 CPUs. The fixes in order, from Gradle's and Android's docs, and a machine that keeps ~/.gradle between jobs: Skipbox, from $39 a month with unlimited minutes.

  • Blacksmith's bill and cache limits: how it charges, what its cache keeps, and when a flat price costs less

    Blacksmith bills each minute by runner size, with 3,000 free 2 vCPU minutes a month, and charges $0.50 per GB a month for Docker layer caches and sticky disks. Its Actions cache is free up to 25 GB per repository per week. How to estimate your own bill, how to cut it, and the arithmetic for when a flat $39 a month costs less.

  • CI for AI coding agents: when the agent waits 20 minutes for GitHub Actions on every loop

    An AI coding agent's loop is push, wait for CI, read the failure, fix, push again, so a 20-minute pipeline costs 100 minutes over five fixes. Shorten the wait in order: checks the agent runs before pushing, superseded runs cancelled, fast checks first, only the affected tests, and a machine that keeps its caches between jobs. Skipbox runs those jobs on your own machine from $39 a month, unlimited minutes.

  • Docker layer cache in GitHub Actions: why every build starts cold, and how to keep the layers

    Every GitHub Actions job starts on a new VM with no Docker build cache and no pulled images, and setup-buildx-action's default builder starts empty. buildx's cache-to and cache-from (gha, registry, local) bring layers back as downloads, inside GitHub's 10 GB. A runner that keeps Docker's build cache on its disk needs none of it, for a flat $39 a month.

  • Flaky Cypress and Playwright tests on GitHub Actions: when the runner is the cause

    E2E tests that pass locally and flake on GitHub Actions are often starved: Cypress, a browser, your app and its database share a private repository's 2 CPUs and 8 GB. Cypress's docs say resource starvation shows up as flaky, slow or random failures. How to confirm it, what to fix in the tests, why sharding costs minutes, and a runner with 8 vCPU and 16 GB at a flat $79 a month.

  • "An Actions budget is preventing further use": get CI running today

    GitHub refuses jobs with this message when a budget set to stop usage is spent, and with "your account is locked due to a billing issue" when a payment failed. They stay refused until someone fixes billing or the month ends. Change runs-on to skipbox and the job runs today, outside the budget, then for a flat $39 a month with unlimited minutes.

  • GitHub Actions cache size limit: why your cache is evicted, slow to restore, or missed

    GitHub's Actions cache holds 10 GB per repository, deletes the entries read longest ago once you pass it, and drops any entry unused for 7 days. Even a hit is a download onto a new VM. What each fix costs, and why a runner that keeps its disk makes most of the cache unnecessary, for a flat $39 a month.

  • A fixed monthly cost for GitHub Actions: a CI budget finance can approve

    GitHub Actions bills each minute in dollars after the month ends, so nobody knows the amount when the budget is approved. A GitHub budget can cap it, but a cap that holds stops your CI. To make CI a fixed line item that never stops, run the jobs on a flat-priced runner: Skipbox is $39 a month per machine with unlimited minutes.

  • "No space left on device" in GitHub Actions: find what fills the disk, free it, or get a bigger one

    GitHub guarantees only 14 GB of free space on its standard Linux runner, and Docker images, cache restores and build trees fill it. How to see what fills the disk, what to delete from the runner image, and where a bigger disk comes from: GitHub's larger runners on Team and Enterprise, or Skipbox's own machine with 80 GB on S, 160 GB on M and 320 GB on L at a flat price.

  • Next.js build slow or out of memory in GitHub Actions: cache, memory, runner size

    A Next.js build in GitHub Actions is slow when .next/cache isn't carried to the next run, and runs out of memory on a private repository's 8 GB ubuntu-latest once webpack, type checking and source maps add up. What to cache, which Next.js settings cut memory, and the runner size: 16 GB for $79 a month or 32 GB for $149 on Skipbox, unlimited minutes.

  • Speed up a pnpm and Turborepo monorepo in GitHub Actions (astro: 528 s to 30 s)

    In a pnpm and Turborepo monorepo on GitHub Actions, most of the time is pnpm install on a fresh VM and turbo running tasks whose results aren't on it. Run only affected packages, give turbo a cache, and keep the pnpm store. Or run on a machine that keeps both: astro's CI went from 528 s on GitHub to 30 s on Skipbox, for a flat $39 a month.

  • Why rust-cache doesn't make your Rust CI fast (tauri: 246 s to 53 s)

    Swatinem/rust-cache caches your dependencies, not your workspace crates, and turns incremental compilation off. So on GitHub's fresh VM every warm job compiles your own crates again. A target/ kept on a machine that stays fixes it: tauri's CI job went from 246 s to 53 s on Skipbox, for a flat $39 a month.

  • How to speed up GitHub Actions: cut a 25-minute pipeline, lever by lever

    A slow GitHub Actions pipeline is jobs waiting on each other, work that didn't need to run, setup repeated on a blank VM, and CPU-bound steps on 2 cores. Fix them in that order. The last two are the machine: Skipbox keeps your caches on your own machine between jobs, with up to 16 vCPU, for a flat $39 a month with unlimited minutes.

  • چرا GitHub Actions کند است و چطور هر جاب را از صفر نسازیم

    GitHub Actions کند است چون هر جاب روی یک ماشین مجازی خالی شروع می‌شود و پیش از اولین تست ابزارهایش را دانلود می‌کند، وابستگی‌ها را دوباره نصب می‌کند و ایمیج‌های Docker را دوباره می‌سازد. Skipbox همه این‌ها را بین جاب‌ها روی ماشین اختصاصی شما نگه می‌دارد، با قیمت ثابت ماهانه $۳۹ و دقیقه‌های نامحدود: با 20,000 دقیقه روی 4 vCPU‏، ماهانه $۱۸۳ کمتر از GitHub.

  • خطای «Your spending limit needs to be increased»: اجرای جاب امروز

    GitHub با این پیام جاب‌ها را شروع نمی‌کند وقتی بودجه خرج شده، دقیقه‌های رایگان بدون روش پرداخت تمام شده یا پرداختی ناموفق بوده است. تا کسی صورت‌حساب را درست نکند، mergeها منتظر می‌مانند. runs-on را به skipbox تغییر دهید تا جاب همین امروز بیرون از بودجه GitHub شما اجرا شود و بعد با قیمت ثابت ماهانه $۳۹ و دقیقه‌های نامحدود.

  • GitHub Actions exit code 137: out of memory, and a 16 GB or 32 GB runner at a flat price

    Exit code 137 means the job ran out of memory and Linux killed it: a private repository's ubuntu-latest has 8 GB. Skipbox runs the job on 16 GB or 32 GB machines for a flat $39 or $149 a month with unlimited minutes, by changing one runs-on line.

  • GitHub Actions larger runners: how to set one up, or get 16 vCPU at a flat price

    An organization owner on GitHub Team or Enterprise Cloud adds a larger runner under Settings, Actions, Runners, and its name becomes the runs-on label. It bills every minute. Skipbox gives you 8 vCPU for $79 a month, unlimited minutes: at 20,000 minutes that is $343 a month less than GitHub's 8-core runner.

  • When do GitHub Actions minutes reset? Run your jobs before the 1st

    GitHub Actions minutes reset at 00:00 UTC on the 1st of each month and don't roll over. Until then, a team out of minutes is billed per minute or blocked. Change runs-on to skipbox and the jobs run today with no GitHub minutes, then for a flat $39 a month with unlimited minutes.

  • "The runner has received a shutdown signal": the cause, and a runner with the memory to fix it

    On a GitHub-hosted runner the cause GitHub confirmed is memory: the job ran out and the VM went down before an out-of-memory line reached the log. ubuntu-latest has 8 GB on a private repository. Skipbox gives a job 16 GB for a flat $39 a month, or 32 GB for $149, unlimited minutes.

  • runs-on in GitHub Actions: labels, examples, and the one line that cuts your bill

    runs-on picks the machine a job runs on, and with it what GitHub bills. ubuntu-latest bills every minute; a self-hosted label bills nothing. runs-on: skipbox moves a job to a self-hosted runner without the upkeep: 4 vCPU for 20,000 minutes a month is $39 flat instead of $222.

  • Self-hosted GitHub Actions runners at a flat price, without running a server

    GitHub bills nothing for self-hosted runner minutes, so a self-hosted runner turns CI into a flat cost. Skipbox is that runner for $39 a month with unlimited minutes and no server to run: 20,000 minutes a month on a 4-core runner saves $183.

  • GitHub Actions too expensive? Move to a flat price and stop the meter

    GitHub Actions gets expensive because every job minute is billed, rounded up, re-runs included. 20,000 minutes a month on a 4-core runner is $222; on Skipbox it's a flat $39 with unlimited minutes, $183 less every month.

  • What a self-hosted GitHub Actions runner really costs, and the flat-price way

    GitHub bills nothing for self-hosted runner minutes; the real cost is the server plus the hours you spend keeping it running. Skipbox is a self-hosted runner with that work done, for a flat $39 a month with unlimited minutes.

  • Playwright on GitHub Actions: faster E2E runs with browsers that stay installed

    Playwright on GitHub Actions is npm ci, npx playwright install --with-deps, npx playwright test. It's slow because every job reinstalls the browsers on a new VM and runs 1 worker on a private repository's 2-core ubuntu-latest. On Skipbox the browsers stay on your machine and a job gets up to 16 vCPU, for a flat $39 a month: at 20,000 minutes on 4 vCPU, $183 a month less than GitHub.
