For instances with a GitHub Advanced Security license and code scanning enabled, the CodeQL action for code scanning analysis uses a minimum recommended version of the CodeQL CLI by default. We recommend that you use the same version of the CodeQL CLI if you run analysis in an external CI system. For more information, see "Configuring code scanning for your appliance."

Minimum GitHub Actions Runner application versions

For instances with GitHub Actions enabled, self-hosted GitHub Actions runners must run a minimum required version of the GitHub Actions Runner application.

For most instances, the Runner application is updated automatically. If your instance uses ephemeral self-hosted runners and you've disabled automatic updates, you must upgrade your runners to the required version of the Runner application before upgrading your instance to a new GitHub Enterprise Server release. For more information, see "About self-hosted runners."
