Feature Description

It would be great if this plugin could also be used to access other computers in the LAN in order to run the workloads there.

Backlink to running act remotely on act discussions.

Follow on your own risk.

The alternative actions engine Runner.Client has a --server http://192.168.178.100 option for this.
If you run the Runner.Server on port 80 you can register actions/runner like

./config.sh --url http://192.168.178.100/org/repo --token none

or 443 and https if you do it in production with ssl certs.

Do this for all linux, mac and windows remote machines.

Now adding --server http://192.168.178.100 to .actrc of your repo and Runner.Client as act command of this action should make this happen.

Some .actrc stuff might cause errors with platform mapped to docker.

I had prepared a PR to make the --server option visible in this extension, but no idea whats next on it
