Claudeagent and ClaudeagentA running job's log is live, as on GitHub. A step's output reaches its run's page within about two seconds: the runner sends what is printed every second, and the page asks every second while a step runs, every three while none does; an answer that fails (a 429, a 5xx, the network) is asked again after a wait that doubles to half a minute, or as long as Retry-After says, where before one such answer stopped the log for good and the step said "No output yet." until the page was reloaded, and a signed-out viewer's run page, refreshing beside its log, ran into the 30-a-minute limit within a minute; the live log now counts as a page, and only log downloads as costly. A hidden tab stops asking and catches up when shown, and the page says when it is reconnecting. The running step opens by itself, its timer counts, its log follows the newest line while its end is on screen and offers Jump to latest once the viewer scrolls up, a step that has printed nothing for a while says "Running · no output for 2m 10s", and the job's header names the step it is on. Colour that tools print (bold, dim, italic, underline, the 16 colours as theme tokens for light and dark, 256 colours and 24-bit colour, text and background) is drawn as printed, other escape codes are dropped and links keep their text, and search reads the plain text and keeps the colours around what it marks. Every line is stamped with the time it was printed, as GitHub's raw logs are, so log.txt and the run's zip have a time at the start of each line, and a clock button beside Search logs shows the times, remembered by the browser. Set up job now gives the runner's version and name, the operating system, the runner image, the machine's architecture, CPUs and memory, the token's permissions under G1T_TOKEN Permissions, the secret source and the actions it downloads; each run step opens with GitHub's folded Run group, the script in cyan, the shell's whole path and the step's env, each uses step with its with inputs (an action's defaults among them) and env; cache and artifact transfers say how far they have got every five seconds; and a last Complete job step sets the job's outputs and stops what the steps left running, found by RUNNER_TRACKING_ID as GitHub's runner finds it. Two batches of a job's log written at once can no longer reach for the same seq and lose one. The Actions guide and the rate limits page say so.

g1t/deploy

Builds the checkout a g1t Actions job is in and puts it on g1t.page: production when the run is on the project's production branch, the pull request's preview for a pull request's run, and the branch's preview for a run on any other branch.

The project must have Deployments on, and the workspace's plan must include them. The guide, Deploying from a workflow, says what is built and when.

Inputs

InputDefault
projectThe repository's one project with Deployments onThe project's slug. Needed when the repository has several.
root-dirThe project's settingWhere the project is in the checkout.
build-commandThe project's setting, else what the build findsWhat builds it.
output-dirThe project's setting, else the first of dist, build, out, public, _site, .output/publicThe folder a static build writes.
shaThe run's commitThe commit this is a build of, for its g1t / deploy check.
token${{ github.token }}The job's own token. It needs deployments: write; any other token is refused.

Outputs

How it works

  1. It calls POST /repos/{owner}/{repo}/deployments/builds with the job's token. g1t checks the plan and the spend limit, decides production or preview from the run, sets the commit's g1t / deploy check to pending, and answers with a token for this build alone and the project's variables and secrets for builds of that kind.
  2. It masks that token and every secret with ::add-mask::.
  3. It runs g1t-runner deploy in the checkout, which installs, builds and uploads the app exactly as g1t's own builds do, and reports to g1t with the build's token. The build's log is in the step's.

A pull request from a fork or from someone without the Write role, and a run that had to be approved, build without the project's secrets. The build's time is the job's Actions time; it is not charged again.

g1t-runner is on g1t's machines. Elsewhere (a self-hosted runner), the action uses the one on PATH, or downloads the newest release from https://g1t.sh/downloads/runner/latest/ and checks it against the release's SHA256SUMS. It runs on Linux and macOS, with curl and either jq or python3.
