Correct answer: Enable Node Auto-Upgrades for the cluster..
Why this is the answer
Enabling Node Auto-Upgrades ensures that your GKE cluster's nodes automatically update to the latest supported and stable Kubernetes versions. This minimizes manual intervention and keeps your cluster secure and compatible with new features. Node Auto-Repair, while important for maintaining node health by replacing unhealthy nodes, does not handle version upgrades. Selecting the latest available Kubernetes cluster version at creation only sets the initial version; it doesn't ensure future updates. Using Container-Optimized OS (COS) as the node image is a good practice for security and efficiency, but it doesn't manage Kubernetes version upgrades for the nodes.
