01 / Product overview

GitHub Actions runners, Git repositories and local diagnostics.

NRS Workbench shows runner state, repositories, logs and local job history on Windows.

Runner control

Start, stop and restart runners. The optional Smart Queue keeps one or two runners connected, rotates idle runners and can wait on CPU/RAM limits; search, manual ordering and READY/BUSY/STOPPED states remain visible.

Repository workspace

Local Git state, ahead/behind visibility, existing-branch switching and guarded Fetch, Pull, Push and Commit actions. The public release includes contextual guidance, session-only Git action history and revalidation before Pull and Push.

Statistics

Local job history, outcomes, duration, activity, reliability and per-runner summaries.

Diagnostics

Selected runner detail and recent log output inside the same Workbench.

Configuration

Runner roots, Smart Queue, portable settings import/export, desktop notifications and system-tray behaviour.

Local control

The application runs locally and does not need a remote service for its main workflow.

02 / Observation

Local job history.

The statistics view shows local jobs, outcomes, activity, load and trends per runner.

03 / Git workspace

Git state and manual operations.

Branch, changes, ahead/behind, latest commit and origin sit alongside Fetch, Pull and Push. Identifying data is hidden in the public screenshot.

04 / Configuration

Local preferences and paths.

Runner roots, folder patterns, refresh interval, confirmations and notifications are managed from a dedicated view.

05 / Workflow

Local workflow.

Detect

Control

Manage processes and check runner health.

Observe

Inspect activity, logs and job history.
