GitHub Actions now supports free-threaded Python!
I wrote up how to add it your workflows so you can start testing free-threaded Python 3.13 and 3.14 with either actions/setup-python or actions/setup-uv.

I think it will probably be straightforward to add support for GIL-free builds of Python, but it needs a little investigation at the moment. There is an open issue: github.com/rstudio/reti... Contributions welcome!
Add support for free threaded Python · Issue #1847 · rstudio/reticulate
Pointing reticulate at a freethreaded Python build currently raises an error. We need to investigate, diagnose the issue, and fix it. We should also make it easy to select a freethreaded Python in ...
