+## Pin a goose version in CI/CD
+In CI/CD (and other automated, non-interactive environments), pin a specific version with `GOOSE_VERSION` to make installs reproducible and avoid 404s when downloading the goose CLI binary assets if the `stable` release tag doesn’t include them.
+
+See [CI/CD Environments](/docs/tutorials/cicd) for a complete example and usage details.

+#### Pinning goose versions in CI/CD
+
+In CI/CD, we recommend pinning a specific goose version with `GOOSE_VERSION` for reproducible runs. This also avoids 404 errors when downloading the goose CLI binary assets if the `stable` release tag doesn’t include them.
+
+Relevant installer options for CI:
+- `GOOSE_VERSION`: the version to pin the install to (both `1.21.1` and `v1.21.1` formats are supported)
+- `GOOSE_BIN_DIR`: install directory (make sure this directory is on `PATH`)
+- `CONFIGURE=false`: skip interactive `goose configure` flow
+
 :::info Replacements
-Replace `REPLACE_WITH_PROVIDER` and `REPLACE_WITH_MODEL` with your LLM provider and model names and add any other necessary configuration required.
+Replace `REPLACE_WITH_VERSION`, `REPLACE_WITH_PROVIDER`, and `REPLACE_WITH_MODEL` with the goose version you want to pin and your LLM provider/model names. Add any other necessary configuration required.
