Intelligence

Automatic Defect Remediation

AI isolates pipeline errors and generates functional PR fixes automatically.

FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

Monk CI is a GitHub Actions runner replacement. It provides faster, more powerful cloud runners that plug directly into your existing GitHub Actions workflows — no new CI platform to learn, no YAML rewrites. You simply swap the runs-on label and your pipelines run on Monk CI's infrastructure.
No. Monk CI requires a GitHub Organization. It is designed for teams and companies that use GitHub orgs to manage repositories and access control. Personal GitHub accounts are not supported.
No. Monk CI is a drop-in replacement for GitHub-hosted runners only. Your GitHub Actions workflows, secrets, triggers, and steps all remain exactly as they are. The only change is a single line: runs-on: monkci-runners-4vcpu instead of runs-on: ubuntu-latest.
GitHub-hosted runners are shared, throttled machines. Monk CI runners are dedicated, high-performance VMs with up to 32 vCPUs, 20 Gbps Docker layer caching, and persistent SSD disks. Pipelines that take 20+ minutes on GitHub runners typically finish in 2–5 minutes on Monk CI.
No. Monk CI is fully managed. There are no servers to provision, patch, or scale. Runners spin up on demand and are torn down after each job. You get the speed of dedicated hardware with none of the operational overhead.
All of them. Matrix builds, reusable workflows, composite actions, GitHub secrets, OIDC tokens, workflow_call — everything works exactly as it does with GitHub-hosted runners, because Monk CI runners are registered with GitHub Actions the same way.
Monk CI uses pay-as-you-go pricing based on active runner minutes. You are charged $0.002 per vCPU/min, so a 4 vCPU runner costs $0.008/min. The first 20 workspaces get 5,000 free runner minutes per month for the first 6 months, and all others get 3,000 free runner minutes per month. There are no seat fees or subscription commitments on the base plan.

Let your CI fix itself. One line to migrate, zero risks.

Faster builds, lower bills, and an AI agent that opens a PR even before you've seen the reason for build failure.
