The smoke-project workflow logs showed Node.js DEP0005 deprecation warnings during artifact downloads. The warning originates from actions/download-artifact@v6.0.0's transitive dependency on tunnel@0.0.6, which uses the deprecated new Buffer() constructor.

Changes

Action Pins

  • Added actions/download-artifact@v7.0.0 (SHA: 37930b16bb1cb0bb7e95e11edc8f5ed31241500a)
  • v7.0.0 updates dependencies to use modern Buffer APIs (Buffer.from(), Buffer.alloc())

Workflow Compilation

  • Recompiled 148 workflows to use v7.0.0
  • Updated test expectations for new SHA

Context

v7.0.0 is API-compatible with v6.0.0. The upgrade provides:

  • Elimination of Buffer deprecation warnings
  • Node.js 24 runtime support
  • Updated security patches

No breaking changes to workflow behavior.
