Updates actions/github-script from 7.1.0 to 9.0.0

Release notes

Sourced from actions/github-script's releases.

v9.0.0

New features:

  • getOctokit factory function — Available directly in the script context. Create additional authenticated Octokit clients with different tokens for multi-token workflows, GitHub App tokens, and cross-org access. See Creating additional clients with getOctokit for details and examples.
  • Orchestration ID in user-agent — The ACTIONS_ORCHESTRATION_ID environment variable is automatically appended to the user-agent string for request tracing.

Breaking changes:

  • require('@actions/github') no longer works in scripts. The upgrade to @actions/github v9 (ESM-only) means require('@actions/github') will fail at runtime. If you previously used patterns like const { getOctokit } = require('@actions/github') to create secondary clients, use the new injected getOctokit function instead — it's available directly in the script context with no imports needed.
  • getOctokit is now an injected function parameter. Scripts that declare const getOctokit = ... or let getOctokit = ... will get a SyntaxError because JavaScript does not allow const/let redeclaration of function parameters. Use the injected getOctokit directly, or use var getOctokit = ... if you need to redeclare it.
  • If your script accesses other @actions/github internals beyond the standard github/octokit client, you may need to update those references for v9 compatibility.

v0.87.5

🌟 Release Highlights

This release delivers 226 merged pull requests focused on hardening the compiler, expanding safe-output tooling, and strengthening the automated linting and grading systems that keep gh-aw's self-maintaining workflows healthy.

✨ What's New

  • gh aw models adds a catalog command for pricing, alias resolution, and observed automation models (#55148).
  • Experimental schema-aware gh aw edit enables structured, validated editing of workflow frontmatter (#55475).
  • PR steering is now available for compatible create-pull-request workflows, replacing the legacy pre-create flow (#55171, #55249, #55285, #55250).
  • daily-storify workflow adds episode-based daily narrative analysis (#55248), and a new daily harness experiment proposer automates experiment ideation (#55120).
  • Generated footers now render the agentic engine used and improved spacing/consistency (#55192, #55372).
  • Added secret-scanning-alerts permission scope and attestations/models permission documentation (#54904, #54856).
  • New drive-backed workflow memory support for persistent state across runs (#54662, #54892).

🐛 Bug Fixes & Improvements

  • Fixed Codex credential check crashes and 401 errors by disabling WebSocket transport (#55106, #55089).
  • Hardened Cloud Hypervisor sandboxing: fixed Copilot SDK crashes and cache-memory write failures (#55495, #55427).
  • Corrected conclusion job permission derivation and skip-dominated workflow health metrics (#55529, #54729).
  • Fixed github-discussion-query payload scaling to avoid jq argument growth (#55560).
  • Improved MCP CLI wrapper script permissions (0o700 instead of 0o755) for tighter security (#55587).
  • Numerous CodeQL and static-analysis findings addressed, including allocation-size guards and actionlint fixes (#55480, #55011).

🔧 Internal & Quality

  • Continued rollout of custom linters (eslint-factory rules, Go analyzers) catching duplicate scene IDs, unsafe string fallbacks, path-join misuse, and more across the codebase.
  • Large-scale test parallelization effort (t.Parallel()) applied across dozens of Go test files to speed up CI.
  • Ongoing refactors split oversized files (awf_config.go, progress.go, safe-output handler registries) into focused modules for maintainability.
  • Migrated dozens of internal agentic workflows to sandboxed/codex engine runtimes for improved isolation.

📚 Documentation

  • Unbloated and refreshed docs for custom agents, GitHub tools reference, glossary, and frontmatter conventions.
  • Clarified quick-start install instructions and cache-memory retention semantics.

All notable changes to this project will be documented in this file.

v0.40.1 - 2026-02-03

Move from githubnext/gh-aw to github/gh-aw

If you were a former user of the githubnext Agentic Workflows you might have to re-register the extension to reflect the new location. As the gh-aw project moved from githubnext to github please delete the old channel and register the new one.

Example:

gh extension list
NAME   REPO              VERSION
gh aw  githubnext/gh-aw  v0.36.0

gh extension upgrade --all
[aw]: already up to date


gh extension remove gh-aw


gh extension install github/gh-aw
✓ Installed extension github/gh-aw


gh extension list
NAME   REPO          VERSION
gh aw  github/gh-aw  v0.40.1

Bug Fixes

Handle 502 Bad Gateway errors in assign_to_agent handler by treating them as success. The cloud gateway may return 502 errors during agent assignment, but the assignment typically succeeds despite the error. The handler now logs 502 errors for troubleshooting but does not fail the workflow.

Add discussion interaction to smoke workflows and serialize the discussion

flag in safe-outputs handler config.

Smoke workflows now select a random discussion and post thematic comments to validate discussion comment functionality. The compiler now emits the "discussion": true flag in GH_AW_SAFE_OUTPUTS_HANDLER_CONFIG when a workflow requests discussion output, and lock files include discussions: write permission where applicable.

Add discussion interaction to smoke workflows; compiler now serializes the discussion flag into the safe-outputs handler config so workflows can post comments to discussions. Lock files include discussions: write where applicable.

Smoke workflows pick a random discussion and post a thematic comment (copilot: playful, claude: comic-book, codex: mystical oracle, opencode: space mission). This is a non-breaking tooling/workflow change.

Updates actions/upload-artifact from 6.0.0 to 7.0.1

Sourced from actions/upload-artifact's releases.

v7.0.1

What's Changed

Full Changelog: actions/upload-artifact@v7...v7.0.1

v7.0.0

v7 What's new

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.

Updates actions/download-artifact from 6.0.0 to 8.0.1

Release notes

Sourced from actions/download-artifact's releases.

v8.0.1

What's Changed

Full Changelog: actions/download-artifact@v8...v8.0.1

v8.0.0

v8 - What's new

[!IMPORTANT] actions/download-artifact@v8 has been migrated to an ESM module. This should be transparent to the caller but forks might need to make significant changes.

[!IMPORTANT] Hash mismatches will now error by default. Users can override this behavior with a setting change (see below).

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 true.

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.

What's Changed

Full Changelog: actions/download-artifact@v7...v8.0.0

v7.0.0

v7 - What's new

[!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.
