It's recommended to use the same cri-tools and Kubernetes minor version, because new features added to the Container Runtime Interface (CRI) may not be fully supported if they diverge.

cri-tools follows the Kubernetes release cycles with respect to its minor versions (1.x.y). Patch releases (1.x.z) for Kubernetes are not in sync with those from cri-tools, because they are scheduled for each month, whereas cri-tools provides them only if necessary. If a Kubernetes release goes End of Life, then the corresponding cri-tools version can be considered in the same way.

All new minor versions of cri-tools are being created from the master branch, whereas corresponding release-1.x branches will be created if a patch release is planned.

See the roadmap for information about current and future milestones.
