Situation

The README > Compatibility document section marks github-action@v6 as deprecated, in line with the previous status of the GitHub Changelog Deprecation of Node 20 on GitHub Actions runners from Sep 19, 2025.

github-action/action.yml

Lines 117 to 119 in f790eee

runs:
using: 'node20'
main: 'dist/index.js'
shows that v6 uses node20.

The removal date for node20 was finally set to Sep 23, 2026, which is now a date in the past.

Change

In README > Compatibility move github-action@v6 to unsupported status.


Note

Low Risk
Documentation-only compatibility guidance update with no code or workflow behavior changes.

Overview
Updates README > Compatibility so github-action@v6 is no longer listed as deprecated with its own Node 20 EOL and caching notes. v1–v6 are now grouped as unsupported, with the rationale extended to include Node.js 20 (EOL) alongside 12 and 16.

github-action@v7 remains the only recommended version; no runtime or action code changes.
