Greptile Summary

This PR bumps the actions/cache GitHub Action from v4 to v6 in the CI workflow, as generated by Dependabot. The upgrade brings in ESM migration, security dependency patches (including fixes for ReDoS and WebSocket vulnerabilities), and read-only cache token handling.

  • The change is isolated to a single line in .github/workflows/ci.yml (line 48), updating the RuboCop cache step in the rails_lint job.
  • v6.0.0 is a major version bump that migrates to ESM; the action interface (inputs/outputs) remains the same, so no workflow configuration changes are needed.

Confidence Score: 5/5

Safe to merge — the change is a single-line version bump in a CI workflow with no logic changes.

Only one line changes: the actions/cache tag in the rails_lint job moves from v4 to v6. The action's inputs and outputs are unchanged between major versions, so the existing cache key, restore-keys, and path configuration all continue to work as before. The v6 line also resolves several upstream security patches.

No files require special attention.
