Breaking Changes 🔥
Minimum Node.js 22 Version Raised to 22.22.0
The supported Node.js 22 range moved from >=22.17.1 to >=22.22.0. Node.js 24 and 26 are unaffected.
undici 8 requires Node.js >=22.19.0 and posthog-node 5 requires >=22.22.0, so the previous floor advertised a minimum those dependencies never supported. Running on 22.17.1-22.21.x was already outside what those packages declare; it is now outside engines.node as well.
Node.js 22 as a whole is deprecated and will be dropped in release-2027-01, so moving to Node.js 24 or 26 is worth more than chasing a 22.x patch.
Detect
Either of:
- The Node.js version running the server is 22.17.1-22.21.x. Check with
node --version. An affected server emitsYou're using an unsupported versionon boot. - A Node.js 22 patch below 22.22.0 pinned in the project - check
.nvmrc,FROMlines in Dockerfiles, and CI job images. Search for22\.(1[789]|2[01])\..
Fix
Upgrade the Node.js runtime to 22.22.0 or newer, and update every pinned version alongside it: .nvmrc, the FROM tags in Dockerfiles, and CI job images. Upgrading to Node.js 24 or 26 instead also resolves it, and avoids a second upgrade when Node.js 22 support is dropped.
npm install on an affected version reports EBADENGINE for undici and posthog-node.
