⚠️ Potential issue | 🔴 Critical

🧩 Analysis chain

Invalid runner label will block the workflow

macos-15-intel isn’t recognised by GitHub-hosted runners (actionlint flags it as unknown), so this job will stay queued forever. Please swap in a supported label (e.g., the official macos-15/size variant) or adjust the include strategy accordingly. Based on static analysis hints.

Invalid GitHub runner label
macos-15-intel isn’t a supported GitHub-hosted runner and will leave the job queued; replace it with a valid label such as macos-15, macos-15-large, or macos-15-xlarge.

🤖 Prompt for AI Agents 
In .github/workflows/test.yml around lines 30 to 31, the runner label
"macos-15-intel" is invalid and will leave the job queued; update the job’s
runner label to a supported GitHub-hosted runner such as "macos-15",
"macos-15-large", or "macos-15-xlarge" (remove the "-intel" suffix), ensuring
the new label matches the job matrix/constraints and retains the same
indentation/format in the YAML.

GitHub Actions macos-15-intel runner label October 2025

💡 Result:

Yes — as of October 2, 2025 GitHub Actions provides a macOS 15 Intel runner under the label macos-15-intel (for x86_64/Intel workloads). GitHub introduced that label for users needing an Intel environment and announced Intel/macOS deprecation timing (macOS 15 Intel images available until the announced retirement window ending in 2027). [1][2][3]

Sources:

  • GitHub-hosted runners reference (lists macos-15-intel). [1]
  • GitHub Changelog announcing the new macos-15-intel label and deprecation notice. [2]
  • actions/runner-images repo (runner image labels and macOS 15 availability). [3]

@njzjz You're absolutely right—my apologies for the incorrect flag. macos-15-intel is a valid GitHub-hosted runner label introduced in October 2025 for Intel/x86_64 workloads on macOS 15. The actionlint tool (v1.7.7) hasn't yet been updated to recognize this new label, which caused the false positive. Your PR change is correct. 👍

Learning: The GitHub Actions runner label `macos-15-intel` is valid as of October 2, 2025. It provides macOS 15 on Intel/x86_64 architecture for workflows that require Intel CPUs instead of Apple Silicon ARM64.
