⚠️ Important Changes

The cache backend service has been rewritten from the ground up for improved performance and reliability. actions/cache now integrates with the new cache service (v2) APIs.

The new service will gradually roll out as of February 1st, 2025. The legacy service will also be sunset on the same date. Changes in these release are fully backward compatible.

We are deprecating some versions of this action. We recommend upgrading to version v4 or v3 as soon as possible before February 1st, 2025. (Upgrade instructions below).

If you are using pinned SHAs, please use the SHAs of versions v4.2.0 or v3.4.0

If you do not upgrade, all workflow runs using any of the deprecated actions/cache will fail.

Upgrading to the recommended versions will not break your workflows.

Read more about the change & access the migration guide: reference to the announcement.

v8 - What's new
Direct downloads

To support direct uploads in actions/upload-artifact, the action will no longer attempt to unzip all downloaded files. Instead, the action checks the Content-Type header ahead of unzipping and skips non-zipped files. Callers wishing to download a zipped file as-is can also set the new skip-decompress parameter to false.

Enforced checks (breaking)

A previous release introduced digest checks on the download. If a download hash didn't match the expected hash from the server, the action would log a warning. Callers can now configure the behavior on mismatch with the digest-mismatch parameter. To be secure by default, we are now defaulting the behavior to error which will fail the workflow run.

ESM

To support new versions of the @​actions/* packages, we've upgraded the package to ESM.

[!IMPORTANT]
actions/download-artifact@​v7 now runs on Node.js 24 (runs.using: node24) and requires a minimum Actions Runner version of 2.327.1. If you are using self-hosted runners, ensure they are updated before upgrading.

Node.js 24

This release updates the runtime to Node.js 24. v6 had preliminary support for Node 24, however this action was by default still running on Node.js 20. Now this action by default will run on Node.js 24.

🚨 Breaking Change

This release fixes an inconsistency in path behavior for single artifact downloads by ID. If you're downloading single artifacts by ID, the output path may change.

What Changed

Previously, single artifact downloads behaved differently depending on how you specified the artifact:

  • By name: name: my-artifact → extracted to path/ (direct)
  • By ID: artifact-ids: 12345 → extracted to path/my-artifact/ (nested)

Now both methods are consistent:

  • By name: name: my-artifact → extracted to path/ (unchanged)
  • By ID: artifact-ids: 12345 → extracted to path/ (fixed - now direct)
Migration Guide
✅ No Action Needed If:
  • You download artifacts by name
  • You download multiple artifacts by ID
  • You already use merge-multiple: true as a workaround
⚠️ Action Required If:

You download single artifacts by ID and your workflows expect the nested directory structure.

Before v5 (nested structure):

- uses: actions/download-artifact@v4
  with:
    artifact-ids: 12345
    path: dist

### Files were in: dist/my-artifact/

Where my-artifact is the name of the artifact you previously uploaded

To maintain old behavior (if needed):

- uses: actions/download-artifact@v5
  with:
    artifact-ids: 12345
    path: dist/my-artifact  # Explicitly specify the nested path

Direct Uploads

Adds support for uploading single files directly (unzipped). Callers can set the new archive parameter to false to skip zipping the file during upload. Right now, we only support single files. The action will fail if the glob passed resolves to multiple files. The name parameter is also ignored with this setting. Instead, the name of the artifact will be the name of the uploaded file.

ESM

To support new versions of the @actions/* packages, we've upgraded the package to ESM.

Notice: Breaking Changes ⚠️

We will no longer include hidden files and folders by default in the upload-artifact action of this version. This reduces the risk that credentials are accidentally uploaded into artifacts. Customers who need to continue to upload these files can use a new option, include-hidden-files, to continue to do so.

See "Notice of upcoming deprecations and breaking changes in GitHub Actions runners" changelog and this issue for more details.

Confidence Score: 5/5 - Safe to Merge

Safe to merge — this PR performs straightforward CI infrastructure version bumps across 13 GitHub Actions workflow files with no logic changes to the actual build or test processes. The upgrades to actions/checkout v6, actions/upload-artifact v7, actions/download-artifact v8, and actions/cache v5 are mechanical dependency updates that follow standard GitHub Actions versioning patterns. No review comments were generated and no heuristic issues were identified, making this a low-risk maintenance PR that improves the CI pipeline's use of current, supported action versions.

Key Findings:

  • All changes are version number bumps to well-known, officially maintained GitHub Actions (checkout, upload-artifact, download-artifact, cache) with no changes to workflow logic, job steps, or environment configuration.
  • The version jumps (e.g., actions/checkout to v6, actions/download-artifact to v8) are large increments that could in theory introduce behavioral changes in edge cases, but GitHub Actions major versions are designed to be backwards-compatible for standard use cases and these actions are widely used across the ecosystem.
  • No review comments, no heuristic flags, and zero coverage gaps were identified — the automated analysis found nothing actionable across all 13 changed files.
  • This PR reduces technical debt by moving away from older action versions (v3/v4) that may receive reduced support or security updates from GitHub.

Confidence Score: 2/5 - Changes Needed

Not safe to merge — while this PR achieves a well-intentioned bulk upgrade of GitHub Actions dependencies across all 13 workflow files, an unresolved pre-existing concern in .github/workflows/llvm.yml represents a genuine build-breaking issue: the runner upgrade to ubuntu-24.04 is incompatible with the libtinfo5 package installation on line 51, since Ubuntu 24.04 (Noble) replaced libtinfo5 with libtinfo6, causing the Set up LLVM step to fail. This is not a cosmetic issue — it will break CI for LLVM-dependent workflows and block builds. The PR should not be merged until libtinfo5 is either replaced with libtinfo6 or the dependency is handled conditionally based on the OS version.

Key Findings:

  • The runner upgrade to ubuntu-24.04 in llvm.yml breaks the libtinfo5 apt package installation (line 51) — this package was dropped in Ubuntu 24.04 Noble in favor of libtinfo6, meaning the LLVM setup step will error out on package installation and fail CI.
  • The version jumps for actions/checkout (v3/v4 → v6), actions/upload-artifact (v4 → v7), actions/download-artifact (v4 → v8), and actions/cache (v4 → v5) are unusually large leaps that skip multiple major versions — these should be verified against the official action changelogs for breaking interface changes, though no new review comments flag specific incompatibilities beyond the libtinfo5 issue.
  • The bulk nature of the upgrade (13 files simultaneously) increases blast radius — if any single workflow breaks, diagnosing which combination of runner OS upgrade + action version bump caused the regression becomes harder to isolate.

⚠️ Major: Upgrade to ubuntu-24.04 breaks libtinfo5 installationlibtinfo5 (line 51) is not available in Ubuntu 24.04 (noble) — it was replaced by libtinfo6. The Set up LLVM step will fail with a package-not-found error on every matrix job because apt-get install -y libtinfo5 has no candidate in the noble repository.

In .github/workflows/llvm.yml at line 51, the command `sudo apt-get install -y libtinfo5` will fail on the newly upgraded `ubuntu-24.04` runner (line 14) because `libtinfo5` does not exist in Ubuntu 24.04's package repositories (it was replaced by `libtinfo6`). Change line 51 from `sudo apt-get install -y libtinfo5` to `sudo apt-get install -y libtinfo6` to match what is available in Ubuntu 24.04 (noble).

⚠️ Major: x86_64 test job now runs on ARM runner (macos-15 is Apple Silicon)macos-13 was an Intel x86_64 runner; macos-15 is ARM (Apple Silicon M-series). The job is explicitly named x86_64-darwin-test, so the architecture switch means x86_64-specific tests are now executed on the wrong ISA. GitHub's own changelog notes that users requiring x86_64 must use a dedicated label (e.g. macos-13-xlarge or a future macos-15-x86_64 label), not macos-15.

In `.github/workflows/macos.yml` at line 15, the runner was changed from `macos-13` to `macos-15`. However, `macos-15` is an ARM (Apple Silicon) runner, while the job is named `x86_64-darwin-test` and requires an Intel x86_64 runner. `macos-13` was the x86_64 runner. Since GitHub is closing down macos-13, check the current GitHub-provided label for x86_64 macOS (likely `macos-13-xlarge` or a new x86_64-specific label as documented in https://github.blog/changelog/2025-09-19-github-actions-macos-13-runner-image-is-closing-down/) and use that label instead of `macos-15`.

File: .github/workflows/win_build_portable.yml (Lines 91-104)

⚠️ Major: LLVM caches built on windows-2022 silently reused on windows-2025 — win.yml saves LLVM caches with keys llvm-libs-18.1.1-msvc (line 178) and llvm-dlls-18.1.1-...-msvc (line 211) — neither key includes the runner OS or a hash of win.yml. After this PR upgrades the runner from windows-2022 to windows-2025, any existing LLVM cache entry built on the old runner will still match those keys and be silently restored on the new runner. win_build_portable.yml (lines 91–104) restores both LLVM caches with fail-on-cache-miss: true, which means they WILL be used if present. Windows-2025 ships with a newer MSVC toolchain (v14.4x vs v14.3x on windows-2022); LLVM static libs compiled against the old CRT may cause linker errors or ABI mismatches when linked into a Crystal binary on the new runner. By contrast, the other lib caches (win-libs, win-dlls) include hashFiles('.github/workflows/win.yml', ...) in their keys (win.yml line 40, 121; win_build_portable.yml line 45, 78), so they are automatically invalidated by this PR's change to win.yml — the LLVM caches have no equivalent safety net.
