🧩 Analysis chain

@WarningImHack3r I'll help you check what's new in actions/setup-node v5 and optimize your CI accordingly. Let me first research the changes and then examine your current CI configuration.

Let me also look at your current CI configuration to understand what can be optimized:

#!/bin/bash
# Find GitHub Actions workflow files

# Show the contents of workflow files that use setup-node

actions/setup-node v5 new features changes what's new

💡 Result:

Summary of what's new in actions/setup-node v5

• Major change: the action runtime was upgraded to use Node.js 24 (breaking — runners must support node24). [1]
• Improved dependency caching: automatic package-manager detection for cache (npm, yarn, pnpm) and related cache enhancements. [1][3]
• Several dependency/security upgrades (octokit, @actions/github, undici, uuid, form-data) and an actions/checkout bump. [1]
• Misc fixes and minor enhancements documented in the v4→v5 changelog; see the release notes and README for updated inputs (node-version, cache, cache-dependency-path, registry-url, etc.). [1][2][3]

If you want, I can:

• show the exact changelog entries and breaking-change lines, or
• suggest a minimal workflow migration snippet for v5.

Based on my research, here are the key changes in actions/setup-node v5 and how you can optimize your CI:

Key Changes in v5:

• Breaking: Upgraded to Node.js 24 runtime (requires runners that support node24)
• Enhanced caching: Improved automatic package manager detection
• Security: Updated dependencies (octokit, @actions/github, undici, etc.)

Current Configuration Analysis:

Your current CI setup is already quite good! You're using:

- name: 🧭 Setup Node
  uses: actions/setup-node@v5
  with:
    node-version: latest
    cache: pnpm

Optimization Recommendations:

Let me also check if you have any specific Node.js version requirements:

---

🏁 Script executed:

#!/bin/bash
# Check what Node.js version is currently specified in package.json
cat package.json | jq -r '.engines.node // "not specified"'

# Check if there are any .nvmrc or other Node version files
fd -H -I '^\.nvmrc$|^\.node-version$|^package\.json$' . | head -5

Length of output: 158

---

🏁 Script executed:

#!/bin/bash
# Look for Node.js version constraints in various files
echo "=== Checking package.json engines ==="
cat package.json | jq '.engines // {}'

echo "=== Checking for .nvmrc ==="
if [ -f .nvmrc ]; then cat .nvmrc; else echo "No .nvmrc found"; fi

echo "=== Checking pnpm version constraints ==="
cat package.json | jq -r '.packageManager // "not specified"'

Length of output: 424

---

Perfect! Now I have a complete picture. Here are my optimization recommendations for actions/setup-node v5:

✨ Optimization Recommendations

1. Leverage Enhanced Auto-Detection (Optional but cleaner)

Since v5 has improved automatic package manager detection, you could simplify your configuration:

- name: 🧭 Setup Node
  uses: actions/setup-node@v5
  with:
    node-version: latest
    # cache: pnpm  # Can be removed - v5 auto-detects from pnpm-lock.yaml

However, keeping cache: pnpm explicit is also fine and makes intent clearer.

2. Consider Version Pinning for Reproducibility

Since you're using node-version: latest, you get the newest Node.js features, but for better reproducibility across environments, you might consider:

- name: 🧭 Setup Node  
  uses: actions/setup-node@v5
  with:
    node-version: '22'  # or '20' - latest LTS versions
    cache: pnpm

3. Enhanced Caching Strategy (Advanced)

For even better performance, you could add cache-dependency-path for more granular caching:

- name: 🧭 Setup Node
  uses: actions/setup-node@v5
  with:
    node-version: latest
    cache: pnpm
    cache-dependency-path: pnpm-lock.yaml  # More specific cache key

4. Current Setup Assessment ✅

Your current configuration is already excellent and well-optimized:

• ✅ Already using v5
• ✅ Proper caching with pnpm
• ✅ Using latest Node.js
• ✅ Good integration with [email protected]

🎯 My Recommendation:

Keep your current configuration! It's already taking advantage of v5's key benefits:

• Automatic security updates from newer dependencies
• Better caching performance
• Node.js 24 runtime for improved performance
• Seamless pnpm integration

The main benefit you're getting from this update is the enhanced security and performance under the hood - your configuration is already optimal for your use case.

Your CI workflow demonstrates excellent practices with the elegant permission checks and conditional logic. The v5 upgrade will provide performance and security benefits without requiring any changes to your well-structured setup.

🧹 Nitpick comments (3)

.github/workflows/pr-checks.yml (3)

59-64: Heads‑up: v5 runs on Node 24; consider pinning Node for stability.

actions/setup-node@v5 executes on Node 24 (breaking change). Verify your runners/workflows and toolchain are OK with this, and avoid node-version: latest drift by pinning to an LTS channel (e.g., lts/*) or a specific major (e.g., '22'). (newreleases.io, github.com)

Apply one of the following:

-      - name: 🧭 Setup Node
-        uses: actions/setup-node@v5
-        with:
-          node-version: latest
-          cache: pnpm
+      - name: 🧭 Setup Node
+        uses: actions/setup-node@v5
+        with:
+          node-version: 'lts/*'   # track latest LTS
+          cache: pnpm

or

-          node-version: latest
+          node-version: '22'      # pin to current LTS for reproducibility

---

61-64: Tighten cache keys for pnpm installs.

Add cache-dependency-path to hash the lockfile explicitly; keeps cache hits predictable (useful if you later add more lockfiles/paths). (github.com)

       with:
-          node-version: latest
-          cache: pnpm
+          node-version: latest
+          cache: pnpm
+          cache-dependency-path: pnpm-lock.yaml

---

56-58: Optionally pin pnpm version (or use corepack) for reproducibility.

To avoid surprise upgrades, pin pnpm (e.g., '9') or switch to corepack enable && corepack prepare [email protected] --activate. Keep as-is if you prefer latest.

-      - name: 📥 Install pnpm
-        uses: pnpm/action-setup@v4
+      - name: 📥 Install pnpm
+        uses: pnpm/action-setup@v4
+        with:
+          version: 9
