replace actions/checkout@v3 with actions/checkout@v5 (or `@v6`), replace
actions/cache@v3 and actions/cache@v1 with actions/cache@v5, and replace
actions/setup-java@v1 with actions/setup-java@v5 so all actions run on node24;
ensure the action version strings (e.g., "actions/checkout@v3",

consistently in the workflow.

🌐 Web query:
`What are the currently supported major versions and runtime compatibility for:
- actions/checkout
- actions/cache
- actions/setup-java
on GitHub Actions (as of 2026)?`
💡 Result:
GitHub Actions JavaScript runtime baseline (2026)
- GitHub-hosted runners now support Node.js 20 and Node.js 24 (runner v2.328.0+), with the platform moving from Node 20 to Node 24 as the default runtime. (github.blog)
1) actions/checkout
| Major version | Action runtime (runs.using) |
Notes / runner requirements |
|---|---|---|
| v6 | node24 (github.com) | Authenticated git from Docker container actions requires runner v2.329.0+ (github.com) |
| v5 | node24 (github.com) | Minimum compatible runner v2.327.1+ (github.com) |
| v4 | node20 (newreleases.io) | (Older runtime line; consider upgrading due to Node 20 deprecation timeline.) (github.blog) |
2) actions/cache
| Major version | Action runtime (runs.using) |
Notes / runner requirements |
|---|---|---|
| v5 | node24 (github.com) | Minimum runner v2.327.1+ (github.com) |
| v4 | node20 (github.com) | — |
| v3 | node16 (github.com) | Legacy runtime line. |
(Repo also shows action.yml on main using node24.) (github.com)
3) actions/setup-java
| Major version | Action runtime (runs.using) |
Notes / runner requirements |
|---|---|---|
| v5 | node24 (github.com) | Minimum runner v2.327.1+ (github.com) |
| v4 | node20 (github.com) | (Implied by “upgraded from node20 to node24” in v5 breaking changes.) (github.com) |
If you want, tell me whether you care about GHES as well, and I’ll add the GHES support/constraints per major version.

Workflow uses outdated and unsupported action versions; upgrade to latest
The workflow uses action versions that are incompatible with current GitHub Actions runners:
actions/checkout@v4runs on node20 (deprecated); use v5 or v6 (node24)actions/cache@v3runs on node16 (unsupported); use v5 (node24)actions/setup-java@v1runs on node16 (unsupported); use v5 (node24)actions/cache@v1(line 27) runs on node16 (unsupported); use v5 (node24)
All runners now default to node24; node20 is deprecated.
