Bumps actions/download-artifact from 4.3.0 to 8.0.0.

Release notes

Sourced from actions/download-artifact's releases.

v8.0.0

v8 - What's new

Direct downloads

To support direct uploads in actions/upload-artifact, the action will no longer attempt to unzip all downloaded files. Instead, the action checks the Content-Type header ahead of unzipping and skips non-zipped files. Callers wishing to download a zipped file as-is can also set the new skip-decompress parameter to false.

Enforced checks (breaking)

A previous release introduced digest checks on the download. If a download hash didn't match the expected hash from the server, the action would log a warning. Callers can now configure the behavior on mismatch with the digest-mismatch parameter. To be secure by default, we are now defaulting the behavior to error which will fail the workflow run.

ESM

To support new versions of the @actions/* packages, we've upgraded the package to ESM.

What's Changed

Full Changelog: actions/download-artifact@v7...v8.0.0

v7.0.0

v7 - What's new

[!IMPORTANT] actions/download-artifact@v7 now runs on Node.js 24 (runs.using: node24) and requires a minimum Actions Runner version of 2.327.1. If you are using self-hosted runners, ensure they are updated before upgrading.

Node.js 24

This release updates the runtime to Node.js 24. v6 had preliminary support for Node 24, however this action was by default still running on Node.js 20. Now this action by default will run on Node.js 24.

BREAKING CHANGE: this update supports Node v24.x. This is not a breaking change per-se but we're treating it as such.

Reviewed the v8.0.0 bump.

Legitimacy: Confirmed — official actions/download-artifact repo, GitHub-maintained.

Breaking changes from v4 → v8:

  • v5/v6/v7: Node.js 24 runtime progression, minimum runner v2.327.1.
  • v8: Digest verification now defaults to error (previously just a warning). If a downloaded artifact hash does not match the server-side hash, the workflow fails. New skip-decompress parameter; non-zipped files are now handled correctly via Content-Type inspection.

Impact on this repo: The stricter digest check is a security improvement. The publish_npm.yml downloads internal artifacts (the dist folder built in the same workflow run) — no reason to expect hash mismatches in normal operation. The name and path inputs are unchanged.

Worth knowing: if CI starts failing on the download step after merge, the digest-mismatch parameter can be set to warn as a temporary escape hatch while investigating.

Safe to merge.
