What is Preloop?

Preloop is a CI engine built in Rust that executes GitHub Actions workflows on hardware-isolated microvms, designed for rapid verification of AI-generated code. It runs on macOS, Linux, and Windows, with each job booting in under 200 milliseconds. The same engine works locally or self-hosted, ensuring workflows that pass on your machine pass in CI.

The platform supports existing GitHub Actions workflows unchanged, including matrix builds, reusable workflows, and OIDC. Key features include pause-on-failure debugging with shell access, live step-level retries, 95% filesystem caching after first run, and the ability to test uncommitted changes. It also provides a Rust-equivalent runner as an alternative to the official GitHub runner.
