Setup
All it takes to set up Sprinters are these 2 easy steps usually completed in under 3 minutes:
1. Integrate Sprinters with your GitHub account
To set up your Sprinters, you’ll need to integrate it with your GitHub account.
This enables Sprinters to connect to respond to GitHub Actions job events and launch runner instances on your behalf. This integration strictly follows the principle of least-privilege and only asks for the absolute minimal set of permissions required for Sprinters to operate.
Log in to Sprinters with your GitHub account
Select the GitHub personal account or organization you want Sprinters to integrate with and confirm the claude.ai installation by clicking Install. The installation now proceeds and after a few seconds GitHub redirects you back to Sprinters.
Congratulations! The Sprinters and GitHub are now fully integrated.
2. Setup your AWS account
To set up your AWS account, you’ll need to create a cross-account IAM role backed by an IAM policy.
This enables Sprinters to connect to your AWS account and launch runner instances on your behalf. Both the role and the policy strictly follow the principle of least-privilege and only include the absolute minimal set of permissions required for Sprinters to operate.
CloudFormation Setup (recommended)
To set everything up, simply create the IAM cross-account role and policy using the Sprinters CloudFormation stack :
Create with CloudFormation in the AWS Console
Fill in your GitHub account name, acknowledge the required capabilities and click on Create Stack.
The IAM cross-account role and its underlying policy will be fully set up within seconds.
Manual Setup
If you are unable to or prefer not to use CloudFormation, you can also follow our step-by-step guide to manually set up your AWS account.
Done!
Congratulations! Sprinters is now fully set up!
