<h2>v4.38.0</h2>
<ul>
<li>On GitHub-hosted runners, the CodeQL Action now deletes unused
CodeQL bundles from the toolcache before downloading a different bundle,
which frees up disk space for the analysis. We expect to roll this
change out to everyone in September. <a

<li>The CodeQL Action now supports CodeQL releases that are compatible

CodeQL bundle when available. <a

<h2>4.37.7 - 13 Aug 2026</h2>

<a
href="https://redirect.github.com/github/codeql-action/pull/4085">#4085</a></li>
</ul>
<h2>4.37.6 - 04 Aug 2026</h2>
<ul>
<li>Changed the default filepath for the new remote file address format
that was introduced in CodeQL Action 4.37.0 / 3.37.0 to
<code>.github/codeql-config.yml</code> to align it with the suggested
path that is used elsewhere. <a
href="https://redirect.github.com/github/codeql-action/pull/4070">#4070</a></li>
</ul>
<h2>4.37.5 - 03 Aug 2026</h2>
<ul>
<li>Fixed a bug where a network error while streaming the download of
the CodeQL bundle could terminate the <code>init</code> Action instead
of falling back to downloading the bundle before extracting it. <a
href="https://redirect.github.com/github/codeql-action/pull/4061">#4061</a></li>
</ul>
<h2>4.37.4 - 29 Jul 2026</h2>
<ul>
<li>This version of the CodeQL Action adds support for the
<code>tools</code> input for the <code>codeql-action/init</code> step to
be specified using a <code>github-codeql-tools</code> <a
href="https://docs.github.com/en/organizations/managing-organization-settings/managing-custom-properties-for-repositories-in-your-organization">repository
property</a>. This feature will gradually be rolled out following the
release of this version. Once rolled out, this allows for the CodeQL CLI
version that is used in GitHub-managed workflows, such as Default Setup,
to be set to a custom value. For example, customers who run into issues
with rate limits when a new CodeQL CLI version is released can set the
value to <code>toolcache</code> to always use the CodeQL CLI version
that is available in the runner toolcache. For Advanced Setup workflows,
the value provided for <code>tools</code> in the workflow definition
always takes precedence unless the value of the repository property
starts with <code>!</code>. <a
href="https://redirect.github.com/github/codeql-action/pull/4037">#4037</a></li>
<li>Update default CodeQL bundle version to <a
href="https://github.com/github/codeql-action/releases/tag/codeql-bundle-v2.26.2">2.26.2</a>.
<a
href="https://redirect.github.com/github/codeql-action/pull/4051">#4051</a></li>
</ul>
<h2>4.37.3 - 22 Jul 2026</h2>
<p>No user facing changes.</p>
<h2>4.37.2 - 21 Jul 2026</h2>
<ul>
<li>The new address format for the <code>config-file</code> input that
was introduced in CodeQL Action 4.37.0 is now enabled by default. In
addition to the format described there, the <code>remote=</code> prefix
can now be used to explicitly indicate that the input refers to a remote
file. All previous input formats continue to be accepted as well. <a
href="https://redirect.github.com/github/codeql-action/pull/4023">#4023</a></li>
<li>The CodeQL Action can now make use of <a
href="https://docs.github.com/en/code-security/how-tos/secure-at-scale/configure-organization-security/manage-usage-and-access/giving-org-access-private-registries">configured
private registries</a> in Default Setup to retrieve CodeQL configuration
files from remote repositories that require authentication. This will
allow customers to store their CodeQL configuration in a single
repository that can then be referenced by Default Setup workflows in
other repositories. We expect to roll this and other, related changes
out to everyone in July. <a
href="https://redirect.github.com/github/codeql-action/pull/4007">#4007</a></li>

<h2>4.37.8 - 21 Aug 2026</h2>
<p>No user facing changes.</p>
<h2>4.37.7 - 13 Aug 2026</h2>
<ul>
<li>Update default CodeQL bundle version to <a
href="https://github.com/github/codeql-action/releases/tag/codeql-bundle-v2.26.3">2.26.3</a>.
<a
href="https://redirect.github.com/github/codeql-action/pull/4085">#4085</a></li>
</ul>
<h2>4.37.6 - 04 Aug 2026</h2>
<ul>
<li>Changed the default filepath for the new remote file address format
that was introduced in CodeQL Action 4.37.0 / 3.37.0 to
<code>.github/codeql-config.yml</code> to align it with the suggested
path that is used elsewhere. <a
href="https://redirect.github.com/github/codeql-action/pull/4070">#4070</a></li>
</ul>
<h2>4.37.5 - 03 Aug 2026</h2>
<ul>
<li>Fixed a bug where a network error while streaming the download of
the CodeQL bundle could terminate the <code>init</code> Action instead
of falling back to downloading the bundle before extracting it. <a
href="https://redirect.github.com/github/codeql-action/pull/4061">#4061</a></li>
</ul>
<h2>4.37.4 - 29 Jul 2026</h2>
<ul>
<li>This version of the CodeQL Action adds support for the
<code>tools</code> input for the <code>codeql-action/init</code> step to
be specified using a <code>github-codeql-tools</code> <a
href="https://docs.github.com/en/organizations/managing-organization-settings/managing-custom-properties-for-repositories-in-your-organization">repository
property</a>. This feature will gradually be rolled out following the
release of this version. Once rolled out, this allows for the CodeQL CLI
version that is used in GitHub-managed workflows, such as Default Setup,
to be set to a custom value. For example, customers who run into issues
with rate limits when a new CodeQL CLI version is released can set the
value to <code>toolcache</code> to always use the CodeQL CLI version
that is available in the runner toolcache. For Advanced Setup workflows,
the value provided for <code>tools</code> in the workflow definition
always takes precedence unless the value of the repository property
starts with <code>!</code>. <a
href="https://redirect.github.com/github/codeql-action/pull/4037">#4037</a></li>
<li>Update default CodeQL bundle version to <a
href="https://github.com/github/codeql-action/releases/tag/codeql-bundle-v2.26.2">2.26.2</a>.
<a
href="https://redirect.github.com/github/codeql-action/pull/4051">#4051</a></li>
</ul>
<h2>4.37.3 - 22 Jul 2026</h2>
<p>No user facing changes.</p>
<h2>4.37.2 - 21 Jul 2026</h2>
<ul>
<li>The new address format for the <code>config-file</code> input that
was introduced in CodeQL Action 4.37.0 is now enabled by default. In
addition to the format described there, the <code>remote=</code> prefix
can now be used to explicitly indicate that the input refers to a remote
file. All previous input formats continue to be accepted as well. <a
href="https://redirect.github.com/github/codeql-action/pull/4023">#4023</a></li>
<li>The CodeQL Action can now make use of <a
href="https://docs.github.com/en/code-security/how-tos/secure-at-scale/configure-organization-security/manage-usage-and-access/giving-org-access-private-registries">configured
private registries</a> in Default Setup to retrieve CodeQL configuration
files from remote repositories that require authentication. This will
allow customers to store their CodeQL configuration in a single
repository that can then be referenced by Default Setup workflows in
other repositories. We expect to roll this and other, related changes
out to everyone in July. <a
href="https://redirect.github.com/github/codeql-action/pull/4007">#4007</a></li>
