Bumps actions/github-script from 8 to 9.

Release notes

Sourced from actions/github-script's releases.

v9.0.0

New features:

  • getOctokit factory function — Available directly in the script context. Create additional authenticated Octokit clients with different tokens for multi-token workflows, GitHub App tokens, and cross-org access. See Creating additional clients with getOctokit for details and examples.
  • Orchestration ID in user-agent — The ACTIONS_ORCHESTRATION_ID environment variable is automatically appended to the user-agent string for request tracing.

Breaking changes:

  • require('@actions/github') no longer works in scripts. The upgrade to @actions/github v9 (ESM-only) means require('@actions/github') will fail at runtime. If you previously used patterns like const { getOctokit } = require('@actions/github') to create secondary clients, use the new injected getOctokit function instead — it's available directly in the script context with no imports needed.
  • getOctokit is now an injected function parameter. Scripts that declare const getOctokit = ... or let getOctokit = ... will get a SyntaxError because JavaScript does not allow const/let redeclaration of function parameters. Use the injected getOctokit directly, or use var getOctokit = ... if you need to redeclare it.
  • If your script accesses other @actions/github internals beyond the standard github/octokit client, you may need to update those references for v9 compatibility.

Autobot — Changes Analysis

PR #8 · dependabot/github_actions/actions/github-script-9 → main · 2026-04-14


## Autobot Summary

### What Changed
This pull request updates the `actions/github-script` dependency across six GitHub Actions workflow files from `v8` to `v9`, ensuring alignment with new features and requirements of the latest version. No changes were made to underlying workflow logic, apart from the dependency upgrade.

### Release Relevance
- Essential CI/CD update affecting the automation workflows that handle pull request processing.
- Standardizes dependency versions for maintainability and operational consistency.
- Version updates directly impact notification jobs, PR sizing checks, and automation tasks central to the repository workflow.

### Risks And Testing
- **Breaking Changes Risk**: Version updates can introduce incompatibilities; explicit tests are necessary to confirm workflow continuity.
- **Runtime Stability**: Confirm environmental dependencies (e.g., Node.js) remain compatible with the new `actions/github-script@v9` version.
- **Workflow Output Validation**: Ensure all tasks triggered in workflows (title checks, PR size checks, notifications) function as expected under the new dependency.
- **Backward Compatibility**: Mimic edge cases to test compatibility with workflows developed for `v8`.

### Classification Signals
- Dependency modification: `actions/github-script` from `v8` to `v9`.
- Uniform file changes affecting `.github/workflows`.
- Compatibility-sensitive update tied to CI/CD infrastructure automation.
- Environment/runtime considerations for potential implicit constraints.
- Full workflow testing required to validate stability and prevent regressions.
