## [UNRELEASED]

No user facing changes.
- Added an experimental change which, when analyzing a PR with [improved incremental analysis](https://github.com/github/roadmap/issues/1158) enabled, prefers CodeQL CLI versions that have a cached overlay-base database for the configured languages. This speeds up analysis when the latest version does not yet have a cached overlay-base database. We expect to roll this change out to everyone in May.

The PR description says this change is "for internal use only" and fully gated behind feature flags, but the changelog entry says "We expect to roll this change out to everyone in May." Please reconcile the changelog wording with the intended rollout/audience (e.g., clarify it’s feature-flagged/experimental and avoid implying an unconditional rollout if that’s not accurate).
