id: f8ed0e8f-7438-4b79-85eb-f358ef2fbebd
status: test
description: |
    A self-hosted runner is a system that you deploy and manage to execute jobs from GitHub Actions on GitHub.com.
    This rule detects changes to self-hosted runners configurations in the environment. The self-hosted runner configuration changes once detected,
    it should be validated from GitHub UI because the log entry may not provide full context.
