+## 3.0.0
+
+`3.0.0` is a major release that moves the action runtime from Node 20 to Node 24.
+Use `v3` on GitHub-hosted runners and self-hosted fleets that already support the
+Node 24 Actions runtime. If you still need the last Node 20-compatible line, stay on
+`v2.6.2`.
+
+## What's Changed
+
+### Other Changes 🔄
+
+* Move the action runtime and bundle target to Node 24
+* Update `@types/node` to the Node 24 line and allow future Dependabot updates
+* Keep the floating major tag on `v3`; `v2` remains pinned to the latest `2.x` release
