Requires a valid HidenCloud login cookie and email and password stored as GitHub Secrets.

So what is it?

This repository automates renewing a HidenCloud hosting subscription using GitHub Actions, so a server does not expire due to a missed manual renewal. HidenCloud is a hosting provider that tends to suspend accounts that create too many signups, so the README recommends using an isolated environment and a dedicated network node that only the account owner uses. To set it up, you fork the repository and add several secrets to the GitHub repository settings under Secrets and variables for Actions. Two required secrets are your HidenCloud email and password. A third required secret, COOKIE_VALUE, is a login cookie value taken from the HidenCloud dashboard, ideally one that stays valid for more than a year, the README explains how to find it using your browser developer tools. There are also three optional secrets: NODE_LINK for a proxy server address, and TG_BOT_TOKEN plus TG_CHAT_ID if you want renewal notifications sent to a Telegram chat. If you do configure a proxy, the script accepts several common proxy link formats, including VLESS, VMess, Trojan, tuic, anytls, hysteria2, and SOCKS5. If no proxy is configured, the script connects directly. Once the secrets are set, you trigger the GitHub Action manually the first time through the Actions menu using workflow_dispatch. After that, you are expected to adjust the cron schedule in the workflow file to match your account actual expiration date, for example running it every Monday if your service renews on Tuesdays. The README includes a disclaimer stating the script is intended only for learning and personal use, that users must follow HidenCloud own terms of service, and that the author takes no responsibility for any problems caused by running it. The project is written in Python and has 28 stars. It would mainly interest people who already have a HidenCloud account and want to avoid manually logging in to renew it before it expires, and who are comfortable configuring GitHub Actions secrets.
