ci: pin actions to Node 24 majors ahead of 2026-06-16 deprecation#189
Merged
Conversation
GitHub deprecates Node.js 20 actions on 2026-06-16. Bump actions/checkout@v4 -> @v6 (Node 24 since v5.0.0), actions/setup-node@v4 -> @v6 (Node 24 since v5.0.0; v6 limits automatic caching to npm, which is the cache we already use), and actions/cache@v4 -> @v5 (Node 24 since v5.0.0). setup-node was not flagged in the original issue but uses the same Node 20 runtime at @v4; bundling it here avoids a follow-up. Closes #173

Summary
GitHub deprecates Node.js 20 actions on 2026-06-16 (per the changelog). All three JavaScript actions used by
.github/workflows/ci.ymlcurrently resolve to Node 20 at@v4. Bumping each to its first Node 24 major:actions/checkout@v4->@v6(Node 24 sincev5.0.0, 2025-08-11)actions/setup-node@v4->@v6(Node 24 sincev5.0.0, 2025-09-04;v6limits automatic caching to npm, which is already what we use)actions/cache@v4->@v5(Node 24 sincev5.0.0, 2025-12-11)Note on scope
Issue #173 named only
checkoutandcache—setup-node@v4was overlooked but is on the same Node 20 runtime and the same deadline. Bundled here rather than carved into a follow-up. Verified via each action'saction.ymlat@v4(all three declareusing: 'node20').This goes with Option 3 from the issue (pin to newer majors); Options 1 (wait) and 2 (
FORCE_JAVASCRIPT_ACTIONS_TO_NODE24=true) are unnecessary now that v5/v6 majors are out and stable.Test plan
Closes #173
