+
+          /kind cleanup
+
+          **What this PR does / why we need it**:
+
+          Updates the project Go toolchain baseline to Go ${TARGET_GO_VERSION}.
+
+          This PR keeps the Go baseline aligned across \`go.mod\` and Docker \`golang:*\` builder image tags. GitHub Actions already read the Go version from \`go.mod\` via \`go-version-file: go.mod\`, so regular post-#391 Go baseline updates should not need workflow file changes.
+
+          **Which issue(s) this PR fixes**:
+
+          NONE
+
+          **Special notes for your reviewer**:
+
+          - Generated by the scheduled Go Toolchain Update workflow.
+          - Validation run in the workflow:
+            - \`python3 hack/go-toolchain.py update --version ${TARGET_GO_VERSION}\`
+            - \`go mod tidy\`
+            - \`python3 hack/go-toolchain.py verify --check-latest --require-latest\`
+            - \`git diff --check\`
+            - \`git diff --exit-code -- .github/workflows\`
+          - PRs created with \`GITHUB_TOKEN\` may not recursively trigger every downstream workflow, so normal PR CI should still be checked before merge.
+
+          **Does this PR introduce a user-facing change?**:
