WalkthroughThe pull request adds Node.js 24.20.0 to the supported runtime constraints for the repository, Ghost Core, and Ember Admin. The compatibility documentation records this support for Ghost 6.63.0 and later. CI now runs the Ghost CLI clean-install scenario on all configured Node versions. The latest-release scenario uses the default Node version. Job and debug-log artifact names include the Node version. The Renovate description now references Suggested reviewers: Merge Risk: 🔵 Low · up to This PR expands Ghost-CLI clean-install coverage to Node 24 while keeping shipped defaults unchanged. The current CI changes still carry bounded reliability and consistency risks because parallel failures may lose diagnostic logs and one new step uses npm instead of pnpm. The PR is mergeable with explicit owner follow-up on those CI issues. 🚥 Pre-merge checks | ✅ 6✅ Passed checks (6 passed)

no ref Ghost should run on Node 24, but nothing about shipping on it has to change to get there. This declares 24 as supported and leaves 22.23.1 as the default everywhere it is one: devEngines, .nvmrc, .node-version, CI's NODE_VERSION and all three Dockerfiles. Pro keeps building and running the same image. The unit, legacy and acceptance matrices have run on 24 for a while and stayed green through a bug that stopped Ghost booting at all — an ESM/CJS require race on `got` that only fired during init migrations. Those suites stop at module level, so full boot is the coverage that was missing. Ghost-CLI's clean-install scenario is the cheapest place to get it: it installs this build's tarball and starts it, so it now runs on every Node line `engines` claims, off the same list the other matrices use. The latest-release scenario stays on the default. It upgrades from the newest Ghost on npm, and that release's own `engines` decides which Node versions can install it — it can join the full list once a published release supports 24. The debug-log artifact name carries the Node version as well as the scenario, since the clean-install legs would otherwise collide on upload. engines.cli is unchanged: the ^1.29.1 minimum is already above the Ghost-CLI release that added Node 24 support. The renovate @types/node cap also stays at <23, since it tracks the Node version we develop and build against, which is still 22. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

Why
Ghost should run on Node 24, but nothing about what we ship has to change to get there. This declares 24 as supported and leaves 22.23.1 as the default everywhere it is one, so the production image — and Pro — keep building and running exactly as they do today.
This replaces the approach in #30434, which flipped the default to 24 outright. That turned out to be a much larger change than the goal required.
The more interesting part is the coverage gap it exposed. The unit, legacy and acceptance matrices have run on Node 24 for a while and stayed green — through a bug that stopped Ghost booting at all:
@tryghost/requeststarted a floatingimport('got')at module scope whilerequest-external.jsdid a synchronousrequire('got'). Node 22 tolerated that; Node 24 rejects it. Nothing caught it until something performed a full boot — the E2E and Ghost-CLI suites. (Already fixed upstream and picked up in #30463, so it isn't an issue on this branch.)The lesson is that suites which stop at module level can all pass while Ghost fails to start. Boot is where runtime-only breakage shows up — a require/import race, a removed API — so boot is what needs to run on each supported line.
What
engines.node→^22.23.1 || ^24.20.0in rootpackage.json,ghost/core, andapps/ember-admin.The default stays 22.23.1:
devEngines,.nvmrc,.node-version, CI'sNODE_VERSION, and all three Dockerfiles are untouched. CI passes no--build-arg NODE_VERSION, soDockerfile.productionkeeps its 22.23.1ARGdefault.Ghost-CLI clean-install runs on every supported line. It installs this build's tarball and starts it, which is the cheapest full-boot coverage available, and it needs no change to the image version:
Three legs: clean-install on 22.23.1 and 24.20.0, latest-release on 22.23.1. The node list reuses the existing matrix output rather than adding a second literal.
Compatibility table gains a
>= 6.63.0 | ^22.23.1 || ^24.20.0 | Added Node.js 24row.Notes for reviewers
latest-releasedeliberately stays on the default. It upgrades from the newest Ghost on npm, and that release'senginesdecides which Node can install it. Every published Ghost currently says^22.23.1, so Ghost-CLI correctly refuses on 24. It can join the full list once a release ships with 24 support. NoteGHOST_NODE_VERSION_CHECK=falseis not a shortcut here — it skips the gate, then boot fails instead.engines.clineeds no bump. The^1.29.1minimum is already above 1.28.6, the Ghost-CLI release that added Node 24; current 1.32.2 declares^22.13.0 || ^24.0.0. Anyone whose CLI satisfies Ghost has one that runs on 24.@types/nodecap stays at<23on purpose — it tracks the Node version we develop and build against, still 22. I updated its description, which said(engines: ^22.23.1)and would now read as wrong.^24.20.0rather than^24.0.0follows the existing convention of pinning a tested floor, the same way the 22 range is^22.23.1rather than^22.0.0.includeentry'sscenariocan't overwrite an existing one. That's documented behaviour and the previous version of this job already used anincludeleg, but the checks list should showGhost-CLI tests (clean-install, Node 24.20.0)as its own entry.actionlintunchanged at 140 pre-existing findings; format, markdownlint, remark link-check andlint:packagesall clean.🤖 Generated with Claude Code
