The exercises workflow was using macos-13, which was deprecated in December 2025 and is no longer available, causing the macOS job to be immediately cancelled.

Changes

  • Updated .github/workflows/exercises.yml to use macos-latest (currently macOS-15 Arm64) instead of macos-13
# Before
runs-on: ${{ matrix.os == 'linux' && 'ubuntu-24.04' || (matrix.os == 'macOS' && 'macos-13' || 'windows-2022') }}

# After
runs-on: ${{ matrix.os == 'linux' && 'ubuntu-24.04' || (matrix.os == 'macOS' && 'macos-latest' || 'windows-2022') }}

Using macos-latest ensures automatic tracking of the latest stable macOS runner as GitHub updates their infrastructure.
