Check name	Status	Explanation	Resolution
Description Check	⚠️ Warning	The pull request description consists only of a sign-off line ("Signed-off-by: drfaust92 [email protected]") with no actual description of the changes made. This is metadata rather than a description of the changeset, and it provides no information about what was updated, why these updates were made, or what impact they have. The description fails to describe any part of the actual changes in the pull request.	Add a meaningful description explaining that this PR updates GitHub Actions workflow files to use newer versions of actions (checkout, auth, setup-gcloud, setup-python, docker/login-action, and kind), updates Python version from 3.9 to 3.11 where applicable, and ensures consistency across all workflow files. This helps reviewers and future maintainers understand the purpose and scope of these dependency updates.
Title Check	❓ Inconclusive	The title "Refresh actions" is vague and uses non-descriptive language that doesn't clearly convey the specific changes to someone scanning the repository history. While the term does relate to the actual changes (updating GitHub Actions versions across multiple workflows), it fails to be specific enough about what is being refreshed or the scope of the updates across four different workflow files. The title reads more like placeholder language than a clear summary of the primary change.

.github/workflows/release.yaml (4)

24-24: Checkout v5 upgrade is straightforward.

Minor version bump from v4 to v5 is a safe upgrade with no apparent compatibility concerns.

---

91-93: Verify setup-python v6 and Python 3.11 compatibility.

Same verification needed as in test_robusta.yaml: confirm setup-python v6 compatibility and validate that Python 3.11 is compatible with the poetry build, all dependencies, and the publish process.

---

76-76: No action needed — docker/login-action v3 is backward compatible.

The v3 action fully supports username and password inputs for Docker Hub authentication, maintaining the same parameter interface as v1. While v3 recommends using a personal access token instead of an account password, this is guidance, not a requirement—the workflow will continue to function without changes.

---

29-29: No breaking changes found affecting the current workflow configuration.

Based on the workflow configuration:

• google-github-actions/setup-gcloud v3: Removed the skip_tool_cache input. The workflow does not use this parameter, so the upgrade is safe.

• google-github-actions/auth v3: The workflow uses standard parameters (project_id, workload_identity_provider) which are not legacy inputs being removed in v3. These appear compatible with v3.

Both upgrades maintain the existing OIDC/workload identity authentication flow. The Node 24+ requirement is handled transparently by GitHub Actions.

.github/workflows/deploy-docs.yaml (1)

38-38: Checkout v5 upgrade is safe.

Minor version bump from v4 to v5 is a standard, safe upgrade.

.github/workflows/test_robusta.yaml (3)

10-11: ****

The only breaking change in setup-python v6 is the Node.js runtime upgrade from Node.js 20 to Node.js 24, requiring GitHub Actions runner v2.327.1 or later. The python-version parameter on line 20 remains fully compatible with v6. The upgrade is safe and requires no action.

Likely an incorrect or invalid review comment.

---

18-22: Verify runner compatibility and test Python 3.11 locally before merging.

The version upgrades here are substantial but safe from an API standpoint:

• actions/checkout v5 and actions/setup-python v6 both require GitHub Actions runner version >= v2.327.1 — verify your CI environment meets this requirement (typically satisfied in modern setups).
• Python 3.11 is compatible with Robusta (which supports 3.9+) and pytest, but confirm all project dependencies work with 3.11 by running the test suite locally before merging.

---

26-26: Based on the web search and workflow inspection, helm/kind-action has no breaking changes between v1.2.0 and v1.12.0, and the upgrade is within the same major version (v1.x). The workflow uses default kind-action configuration with no custom Kubernetes version constraints, so the version bump to kind v0.26.0 (the default in v1.12.0) is compatible with standard Kubernetes operations like kubectl and kind load docker-image used in this workflow. The upgrade is safe to proceed.

.github/workflows/new-contributors-autoreply.yaml (1)

13-13: No action required—v3 upgrade is compatible.

The only breaking change in v3 is that self-hosted runners must be GitHub Actions runner version v2.327.1 or later. This workflow uses ubuntu-latest (GitHub-hosted runner), so the breaking change does not apply. The parameters used (repo-token and issue-message) remain compatible.
