# Get runner settings

> Where a workspace's (or a repository's) g1t agent work runs, and whether pull requests from forks may use its self-hosted runners.

<div class="g1t-endpoint"><span class="g1t-method" data-method="get">GET</span><code>/repos/{owner}/{name}/actions/runner-settings</code></div>

`agents_on_self_hosted` sends agent runs, checks, reviews and the merge queue to runners with `agent_labels` instead of g1t's sandboxes. A repository's are its workspace's unless it has its own (`inherited`).

- **Authentication:** Required. Send an [access token](/reference/api/#authentication) as `Authorization: Bearer`.
- **MCP tool:** [`workflow`](/reference/mcp/#workflow) with `action` `get_runner_settings`, and the same inputs
- **Scope:** An access token needs [`runners:read`](/guides/authentication/#scopes).
- **Also at:** [`GET /workspaces/{workspace}/actions/runner-settings`](/reference/api/runners/get-runner-settings-for-workspace/)

| 401 | `unauthenticated` | A token is required, or the one sent is not valid. |
| 403 | `forbidden` | The token is valid but not allowed to do this, such as a member-only change or an agent token outside its repository. |
| 404 | `not_found` | It does not exist, or you cannot see it. |
