GitHub Actions – Just-in-time self-hosted runners

You can now create single-use self-hosted runners without time-limited registration tokens using the REST API.

When a runner registers using this API it will only be allowed to run a single job before being automatically removed from the repository, organization, or enterprise. This enables you to improve the security of your self-hosted runner infrastructure by limiting the exposure of long lived credentials.
