- Added an experimental change which disables TRAP caching when [improved incremental analysis](https://github.com/github/roadmap/issues/1158) is enabled, since improved incremental analysis supersedes TRAP caching. This will improve performance and reduce Actions cache usage. We expect to roll this change out to everyone in March. [#3569](https://github.com/github/codeql-action/pull/3569)

- We are rolling out improved incremental analysis to C/C++ analyses that use build mode `none`. We expect this rollout to be complete by the end of April 2026. [#3584](https://github.com/github/codeql-action/pull/3584)

File coverage information will still be computed on non-PR analyses. Pull request analyses will log a warning about this upcoming change. [#3562](https://github.com/github/codeql-action/pull/3562)

First, create a custom repository property with the name `github-codeql-disable-overlay` and the type "True/false" in the organization's settings. Then in the repository's settings, set this property to `true` to disable improved incremental analysis. For more information, see [Managing custom properties for repositories in your organization](https://docs.github.com/en/organizations/managing-organization-settings/managing-custom-properties-for-repositories-in-your-organization).

- Added an experimental change so that when [improved incremental analysis](https://github.com/github/roadmap/issues/1158) fails on a runner — potentially due to insufficient disk space — the failure is recorded in the Actions cache so that subsequent runs will automatically skip improved incremental analysis until something changes (e.g. a larger runner is provisioned or a new CodeQL version is released).

- Added an experimental change which improves how certificates are generated for the authentication proxy that is used by the CodeQL Action in Default Setup when [private package registries are configured](https://docs.github.com/en/code-security/how-tos/secure-at-scale/configure-organization-security/manage-usage-and-access/giving-org-access-private-registries). This is expected to generate more widely compatible certificates and should have no impact on analyses which are working correctly already. We expect to roll this change out to everyone in February.

- Added a setting which enables GitHub-managed workflows, such as Default Setup, to use a [nightly CodeQL CLI release](https://github.com/dsp-testing/codeql-cli-nightlies) instead of the latest, stable release that is used by default. This will help GitHub staff support customers whose analyses for a given repository or organization require early access to a change in an upcoming CodeQL CLI release. This setting can only be enabled by GitHub staff. [#3484](https://github.com/github/codeql-action/pull/3484)

- When SARIF files are uploaded by the `analyze` or `upload-sarif` actions, the CodeQL Action automatically performs post-processing steps to prepare the data for the upload. Previously, these post-processing steps were only performed before an upload took place. We are now changing this so that the post-processing steps will always be performed, even when the SARIF files are not uploaded. This does not change anything for the `upload-sarif` action. For `analyze`, this may affect Advanced Setup for CodeQL users who specify a value other than `always` for the `upload` input. [#3222](https://github.com/github/codeql-action/pull/3222)

Starting November 30, 2024, GitHub.com customers will [no longer be able to use `actions/download-artifact@v3`](https://github.blog/changelog/2024-04-16-deprecation-notice-v3-of-the-artifact-actions/). Therefore, to avoid breakage, customers who programmatically download the CodeQL Action debug artifacts should set the `CODEQL_ACTION_ARTIFACT_V4_UPGRADE` environment variable to `true` and bump `actions/download-artifact@v3` to `actions/download-artifact@v4` in their workflows. The CodeQL Action will enable this behavior by default in early November and workflows that have not yet bumped `actions/download-artifact@v3` to `actions/download-artifact@v4` will begin failing then.
