Bumps actions/download-artifact from 4 to 8.

Release notes

Sourced from actions/download-artifact's releases.

v8.0.0

v8 - What's new

[!IMPORTANT] actions/download-artifact@v8 has been migrated to an ESM module. This should be transparent to the caller but forks might need to make significant changes.

[!IMPORTANT] Hash mismatches will now error by default. Users can override this behavior with a setting change (see below).

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 true.

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.

Greptile Summary

This PR is an automated Dependabot bump of actions/download-artifact from v4 to v8 across 8 GitHub Actions workflow files (11 individual step references). The upgrade spans three major versions, bringing Node.js 24 runtime support (v7) and stricter hash-mismatch enforcement that now errors by default instead of warning (v8).

  • All 11 updated download-artifact steps run on GitHub-hosted runners (ubuntu-24.04, ubuntu-latest, windows-2025, or macos-*), so the v7 self-hosted-runner requirement (Actions Runner ≥ 2.327.1) does not affect this repo.
  • The v8 hash-mismatch-error default is a security improvement; no workflow passes digest-mismatch: warn today, so behavior is unchanged for well-formed artifact uploads.
  • scenario-matrix.yml does use [self-hosted, eliza-e2e-macos] runners for build jobs, but the download-artifact step lives in the separate aggregation job that runs on ubuntu-24.04.

Confidence Score: 5/5

Safe to merge — all affected jobs run on GitHub-hosted runners and the only behavioral change (hash-mismatch now errors) is a security hardening improvement.

All 11 download-artifact steps are in jobs that use GitHub-hosted runners, so the Node.js 24 runner-version prerequisite introduced in v7 is automatically satisfied. The v8 default of erroring on hash mismatches tightens security but does not change normal artifact flows. No workflow parameters need updating for compatibility.

No files require special attention.

Important Files Changed

Filename Overview
.github/workflows/scenario-matrix.yml Bumps download-artifact from v4 to v8 in the report/aggregation job (ubuntu-24.04), not on the self-hosted macOS runner legs.
.github/workflows/android-release.yml Bumps download-artifact from v4 to v8 in a GitHub-hosted ubuntu-24.04 job; no self-hosted runner concerns.
.github/workflows/elizaos-os-full-release.yml Four download-artifact usages updated to v8, all in GitHub-hosted ubuntu-latest jobs.
.github/workflows/release-electrobun.yml Two download-artifact steps updated to v8; jobs use vars.RUNNER_UBUNTU defaulting to ubuntu-24.04 (GitHub-hosted).
.github/workflows/hetzner-e2e.yml One download-artifact step bumped to v8 in a GitHub-hosted ubuntu-latest job.
.github/workflows/lifeops-bench-multi-tier.yml Two download-artifact steps bumped to v8 in a GitHub-hosted ubuntu-24.04 job with continue-on-error guards.
.github/workflows/release-computeruse-npm.yaml One download-artifact step bumped to v8 in a GitHub-hosted ubuntu-latest job.
.github/workflows/windows-store-release.yml One download-artifact step bumped to v8 in a GitHub-hosted windows-2025 job.
