On top of that, the workflow accepts a comma-separated list of custom tags as a
parameter (e.g. `latest,devnet2`). We use the following tagging convention:

- `unstable` - the latest image built from the `main` branch, without any devnet-specific features
- `latest` - the latest image built for the current devnet (`devnet3` at the time of writing)
- `devnetX` - the latest image built with `devnetX` support (e.g. `devnet3`, `devnet4`)
- `unstable` - the latest image built from the `main` branch
- `latest` - the latest stable image built for the current devnet (`devnet5` at the time of writing)
- `devnetX` - the latest stable image built with `devnetX` support (e.g. `devnet3`, `devnet4`)

MegaRedHand marked this conversation as resolved.
Outdated

Future devnets will introduce new tags, with previous ones left without updates.
