Node.js 20 actions are deprecated: Upgrade to Node.js 24

[a7asoft]

Description

GitHub Actions has announced the deprecation of Node.js 20 for actions. Workflows using very_good_coverage@v3 now emit the following warning:

Node.js 20 actions are deprecated. The following actions are running on Node.js 20 and may not work as expected: VeryGoodOpenSource/very_good_coverage@v3. Actions will be forced to run with Node.js 24 by default starting June 2nd, 2026.

Reference: https://github.blog/changelog/2025-09-19-deprecation-of-node-20-on-github-actions-runners/

Current behavior

very_good_coverage@v3 uses node20 in its action.yml, which triggers deprecation warnings on every workflow run.

Expected behavior

The action should be updated to use node24 to align with GitHub's migration timeline and eliminate deprecation warnings.

Additional context

• The deadline to migrate is June 2, 2026, after which GitHub will force actions to run with Node.js 24 by default.
• actions/cache has already released v5 with Node.js 24 support as a reference.
• This also affects downstream consumers via very_good_workflows, which depend on this action internally.

Hi there, thanks for the report!

But we're in fact in the process of deprecating this Github Action. We've added its functionality to the Very Good CLI, and we're updating our workflows accordingly. You can follow progress here:

VeryGoodOpenSource/very_good_workflows#425

Hope this helps!
