Stratus

GitHub-hosted 8-core $0.032 / min 16× more expensive than equivalent self-hosted compute.
At 50k minutes/month $1,600 vs $100 / mo That's $18,000/year because self-hosted overflow isn't solved.
When self-hosted saturates 20+ min queues Engineers wait. Teams switch to GitHub-hosted and stay there forever.

Hybrid Runner Routing

Stratus listens for workflow_job.queued webhooks and routes jobs to your self-hosted fleet when capacity is available — or falls back to GitHub-hosted runners automatically. Zero workflow changes. 19 runner profiles. Sub-500ms JIT registration.

The Framework Vision

AI model providers will embed cloud deployment directly into their products. When they do, they'll need a self-hosted infrastructure framework that agents already know how to use. Stratus is being built to be that framework — OpenStack-compatible, Kubernetes-native, agent-ready.
