GitHub Actions: macOS 15 and Windows 2025 images are now generally available

macOS 15 and Windows 2025 images are now generally available for all GitHub-hosted runners. You can use these images in your workflows on GitHub-hosted standard or larger runners.

Get started today

To use macOS 15 directly, update runs-on: in your workflow file to macos-15, macos-15-xlarge, or macos-15-large.

jobs:
  build:
    runs-on: macos-15
    steps:
      - uses: actions/checkout@v4
      - name: Build
        run: swift build
      - name: Run tests
        run: swift test

To use Windows 2025, you can target the image directly on standard runners using runs-on: windows-2025. For larger runners, create a runner and select Windows Server 2025 in the Images UI console.

The latest tag will migrate to these images later in the year.

Keep in mind that the new runner images have different tools and tool versions than previous versions. To view the full list of software or report issues with your workflows when using the images, visit the runner-images repository.
