Xcode 27 runner image generally available
GitHub has made the Xcode 27 runner image generally available for building and testing Apple applications in GitHub Actions. The image runs on macOS 27 and includes the Xcode 27 toolchain and Apple SDKs. It is available on Apple Silicon (arm64) runners only, selected with the xcode-27 and xcode-27-xlarge labels.
What changes for platform teams
Teams building Apple apps on GitHub-hosted runners can target the xcode-27 or xcode-27-xlarge labels, and existing workflows using those labels need no change. Intel runners are not supported, so pipelines that depend on them will need a different runner.
