🔍 Release Content Analysis

Version Change: actions/cache v5.0.1 → v5.0.2

Key Changes in v5.0.2:

• Rate Limiting Improvement: When creating cache entries, HTTP 429 (Too Many Requests) responses from the cache service will no longer trigger retry attempts
• License Updates: Updated licensed records for cache and httpclient dependencies
• Build Updates: Minor build process improvements
• Documentation: Added PR links to releases

Breaking Changes: None

Security Fixes: None explicitly mentioned

Compatibility:

• Both v5.0.1 and v5.0.2 require Node.js 24 runtime
• Minimum Actions Runner version: 2.327.1
• The v5.0.2 change is purely behavioral (retry logic) and does not affect the API interface

🎯 Impact Scope Investigation

Usage Locations:

• .github/actions/setup/action.yml:10 - Central setup action used by multiple workflows
  • Caches Go build artifacts (~/.cache/go-build) and Go module dependencies (~/go/pkg/mod)

Workflows Using the Setup Action:

1. .github/workflows/ci.yml - Test, Build, and Lint jobs
2. .github/workflows/release-please.yml - Release job
3. .github/workflows/update-demo.yml - Demo update job
4. .github/workflows/update-docs.yml - Documentation update job

Impact Assessment:

• No API Changes: The cache action's inputs, outputs, and configuration remain identical
• No Configuration Changes Required: All existing cache configurations (path, key, restore-keys) work without modification
• Behavioral Improvement: The 429 retry change improves reliability by preventing unnecessary retry loops during rate limiting scenarios
• Dependency Chain: No impact on other dependencies; this is a GitHub Actions update only

CI Status:
All checks are passing:

• ✅ Test (50s)
• ✅ Build (3m5s)
• ✅ Lint (46s)
• ✅ actionlint, ghalint, zizmor (all passing)
• ⏳ Claude Renovate Review (pending - this review)

💡 Recommended Actions

Merge Decision: ✅ Safe to merge immediately

Rationale:

1. This is a patch version update (5.0.1 → 5.0.2) with backward compatibility maintained
2. The only functional change improves reliability (no retry on 429 errors)
3. No breaking changes or API modifications
4. All CI checks are passing
5. No code changes required in the repository
6. The change aligns with best practices (respecting rate limits)

Post-Merge Actions:

• No manual migration or code changes required
• No configuration updates needed
• Monitor workflows to ensure cache operations continue working as expected
