Proposed Changes

Review and update the GitHub Actions in workflows on main that are still running on deprecated Node.js 20, and bump them to versions that support Node.js 24 where available.

The warning currently mentions:

actions/checkout@v4
actions/setup-node@v4
actions/setup-python@v5
astral-sh/ruff-action@4919ec5cf1f49eff0871dbcea0da843445b837e6

While looking through the workflows on main, there are a few additional actions that should be included in scope as well:

actions/create-github-app-token@v1
EndBug/add-and-commit@a94899bca583c204427a224a7af87c02f9b325d5
actions/stale@v9 (used in both close-incomplete-issues.yml and close-stale-issues.yml)

Affected workflows currently include:

ci.yml
update-translation-strings.yml
codeql.yml
claude-code-review.yml
claude.yml
close-incomplete-issues.yml
close-stale-issues.yml

As part of this housekeeping task, we should also validate the affected workflows against Node.js 24 early (for example by temporarily enabling FORCE_JAVASCRIPT_ACTIONS_TO_NODE24=true) so any compatibility issues can be caught before the platform switch becomes the default.

Justification

GitHub has announced that JavaScript actions will begin running on Node.js 24 by default starting June 2, 2026. Cleaning this up ahead of time will help us avoid CI surprises, keep our workflows healthy, and make the transition smoother for maintainers and contributors alike.

Note: lock-threads.yml does not appear to need changes at the moment, as dessant/lock-threads@v6.0.0 already runs on Node.js 24.
