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.

v3.0.3

Compare Source

3.0.3 is a maintenance release with updated dependencies. It also safely
classifies malformed GitHub API errors to avoid secondary failures (#​822).

  • dependency updates

v3.0.2

Compare Source

3.0.2 is a patch release focused on release reliability and compatibility. It
reuses existing draft releases when publishing prereleases, supports replacing
release assets on Gitea, hardens streamed asset uploads, and provides clearer
release-creation diagnostics. It also includes TypeScript, coverage, and tooling
maintenance merged since 3.0.1.

This release fixes #​795, #​438, and #​803. The upload transport hardening covers the
historical failure reported in #​790, although current hosted Node 24 runners did
not reproduce it naturally. The diagnostics work is related to #​786 and does not
claim a reproducible release-creation fix.

3.0.1

  • maintenance release with updated dependencies

v3.0.0

Compare Source

3.0.0 is a major release that moves the action runtime from Node 20 to Node 24.
Use v3 on GitHub-hosted runners and self-hosted fleets that already support the
Node 24 Actions runtime. If you still need the last Node 20-compatible line, stay on
v2.6.2.

What's Changed

Other Changes 🔄
  • Move the action runtime and bundle target to Node 24
  • Update @types/node to the Node 24 line and allow future Dependabot updates
  • Keep the floating major tag on v3; v2 remains pinned to the latest 2.x release
