To use this older version, no change is required. To use the newest version of CodeQL, please update your workflows to reference the latest version of the CodeQL Action (`v2`). - - **Advanced users only**: Workflows that interact directly with the GitHub Actions runner image tool cache to find CodeQL (for example via the `@actions/tool-cache` npm package or direct access to the filesystem) should take into account the following internal layout changes: + - **Advanced users only**: Workflows that interact directly with the GitHub Actions runner image tool cache to find CodeQL, for example via the `@actions/tool-cache` npm package or direct access to the filesystem, should take into account the following internal layout changes: - Previously, the tool cache was pre-populated with _one_ recent version of CodeQL. Now, it is pre-populated with _two_ recent versions of CodeQL. - Previously, the CodeQL tools were located within the tool cache under a directory named after the release date, e.g. CodeQL 2.11.6 was located under `CodeQL/0.0.0-20221211/x64/codeql`. Now, the CodeQL tools are located under a directory named after the CodeQL CLI version number and release date, e.g. CodeQL 2.11.6 is now located under `CodeQL/2.11.6-20221211/x64/codeql`. + + Where possible, we recommend downloading and managing the CodeQL CLI via the [CodeQL extension for the GitHub CLI](https://github.com/github/gh-codeql) or [GitHub Releases](https://github.com/github/codeql-cli-binaries/releases) rather than using the CodeQL tools from the runner image tool cache. - Python automatic dependency installation will no longer fail for projects using Poetry that specify `virtualenvs.options.no-pip = true` in their `poetry.toml`.
