workflow-plugin-github

GitHub integration plugin for the workflow engine. Provides GitHub webhook handling and GitHub Actions workflow management.

Capabilities

Module: git.webhook

Receives GitHub webhook events, validates HMAC-SHA256 signatures, normalizes payloads to a common GitEvent schema, and publishes to a configured message broker topic.

modules:
  - name: github-webhooks
    type: git.webhook
    config:
      provider: github
      secret: "${GITHUB_WEBHOOK_SECRET}"
      events: [push, pull_request, release]
      topic: "git.events"

The module registers an HTTP handler at /webhooks/github. Configure your GitHub repository webhook to point to https://<host>/webhooks/github.

Module: github.runner_provider

Provides the GitHub-owned side of the workflow-compute runner provider boundary. It mints repository-scoped GitHub Actions runner registration tokens and removes runners without exposing GitHub API credentials to workflow-compute.

modules:
  - name: github-runners
    type: github.runner_provider
    config:
      token: "${GITHUB_TOKEN}"
      provider_token: "${GITHUB_RUNNER_PROVIDER_TOKEN}"
      repositories: ["GoCodeAlone/workflow-compute"]

For local proof runs, the repo also builds github-runner-provider, a small HTTP provider service:

GITHUB_TOKEN=... \
GITHUB_RUNNER_PROVIDER_TOKEN=... \
GITHUB_RUNNER_PROVIDER_REPOSITORIES=GoCodeAlone/workflow-compute \
  bin/github-runner-provider 127.0.0.1:8090

workflow-compute should point at that service with COMPUTE_GITHUB_RUNNER_PROVIDER_URL and COMPUTE_GITHUB_RUNNER_PROVIDER_TOKEN; it should not receive GITHUB_TOKEN.

Step: step.gh_action_trigger

Triggers a GitHub Actions workflow via workflow_dispatch.

- type: step.gh_action_trigger
  config:
    owner: "GoCodeAlone"
    repo: "workflow"
    workflow: "ci.yml"
    ref: "main"
    inputs:
      environment: "staging"
    token: "${GITHUB_TOKEN}"

Step: step.gh_action_status

Checks or polls the status of a GitHub Actions workflow run.

- type: step.gh_action_status
  config:
    owner: "GoCodeAlone"
    repo: "workflow"
    run_id: 123456
    token: "${GITHUB_TOKEN}"
    wait: true
    poll_interval: "10s"
    timeout: "30m"

Step: step.gh_create_check

Creates a GitHub Check Run (commit status check).

- type: step.gh_create_check
  config:
    owner: "GoCodeAlone"
    repo: "workflow"
    sha: "abc123"
    name: "workflow-ci"
    status: "completed"
    conclusion: "success"
    title: "CI Pipeline"
    summary: "All tests passed"
    token: "${GITHUB_TOKEN}"
