Question: How to avoid drift in AMI IDs

[dgokcin]

Hello and thank you for this great project. I have the following multi-runner configuration where I use an AMI by runs-on since they are really close to the GitHub Actions runners and are updated regularly. One thing I have noticed is once the terraform module is applied, if the ami-id is deleted by the ami provider, the builds get stuck. And I need to re-apply the module to update the id in the launch template.

Is there a way to make this more dynamic or easier to maintain?

Thanks!

        #... multi_runner_config  
        enable_runner_binaries_syncer = true
        ami_owners                    = ["135269210855"] # runs-on ami account id

        userdata_template             = "./templates/user-data-runs-on.sh" #userdata for runs-on
        ami_filter = {
          name  = ["runs-on-v2.2-ubuntu24-full-x64-*"],
          state = ["available"]
        }
