I wish there was an official Helm Chart for k8s, like GitLab CI/CD Runner has, and not the kind that sits there and does no scale, but he kind that spins up workers on demand without taking too much resources while idle.

I wish GitHub copied that feature from GitLab too!

It's not official, but there are K8s / github actions runner deployments: https://github.com/actions-runner-controller/actions-runner-...

I've been playing about with this and it seems to work quite well. Startup latency is quite high, and it's one pod-per-job (I think), but seems pretty flexible.

I've been eyeing this for a while. My biggest hangup is that CI/CD is a major attack (e.g. supply chain) vector. If you use CI/CD for deploys, then a lot of highly privileged creds are in play.

I'd really prefer if GH made and managed the K8s operator (e.g. the most popular infra provisioning tool) themselves.
