We’re temporarily pausing GitHub Actions enforcement of the minimum self-hosted runner version requirement (v2.329.0) scheduled to take effect on March 16, 2026. Runners below v2.329.0 can still register and configure during this period.

We’ll publish an updated timeline and enforcement plan in the coming weeks. We strongly encourage you to continue upgrading your self-hosted runners to v2.329.0 or later as soon as you can (review the upgrade documentation for detailed guidance).

This doesn’t change our long-term direction. We still plan to block older runner versions from registration and configuration. We’re taking this time to ensure a smooth transition.

For reference, here are the previous communications on this topic:
