 # Setup Flutter
 
-Cross-platform composite action to set up the Flutter SDK with automated caching on macOS, Windows, and Linux. Supports local Git mirrors with automatic fallback to upstream GitHub.
+Cross-platform composite action to set up the Flutter SDK with concurrency locking and local Git mirror support on macOS, Windows, and Linux.
 
 ## Features
 
 - **Multi-OS Support**: Native setup for macOS (Apple Silicon & Intel), Windows (PowerShell), and Linux.
 - **Git Mirror & Fallback**: Clones from local Gitea Flutter mirror (`https://git.rodydavis.dev/rodydavis/flutter.git`) with automatic fallback to `https://github.com/flutter/flutter.git`.
-- **SDK Caching**: Uses `actions/cache@v3` to cache the full Flutter SDK directory across workflow runs based on OS, CPU architecture, and version.
+- **Fast Local Disk Caching & Concurrency Locks**: Reuses persistent runner SDK installations on disk without expensive tar compression steps or race conditions between parallel jobs.
 - **Desktop Windowing**: Automatically configures desktop windowing support and exports Flutter to `$GITHUB_PATH`.
 
 ## Inputs
 
 | Name | Description | Required | Default |
 | :--- | :--- | :--- | :--- |
-| `version` | Flutter channel, tag, or branch (e.g., `master`, `stable`, `3.29.0`). | No | `master` |
+| `version` | Flutter channel, tag, or commit hash (e.g., `master`, `stable`, `3.29.0`, `4ebf37fe...`). | No | `master` |
 | `mirror_url` | Git repository URL for Flutter SDK mirror. | No | `https://git.rodydavis.dev/rodydavis/flutter.git` |
 | `git_token` | Gitea token for authenticated git mirror access. | No | `''` |
-| `cache` | Enable Flutter SDK caching across CI runs. | No | `true` |
 | `enable_windowing` | Enable desktop windowing and platform configs. | No | `true` |
