Rails 8.1 introduces Local CI as a first-class feature, allowing developers to define CI workflows in a single config/ci.rb file using a simple DSL. The new bin/ci runner executes the same tasks locally and on CI servers, eliminating inconsistencies between environments. This standardization reduces pipeline failures, simplifies onboarding, and ensures developers and CI systems share the same workflow definition. The feature supports tests, linting, security checks, and integrates with existing CI services like GitHub Actions.
