    Best practice
    Explain the security benefits of using Docker image digests

    It's a good practice to explain why using a Docker image by its digest enhances
    security. This could be briefly mentioned in the documentation to provide clarity
    and justification for this practice.

    docs/docs/installation/github.md [41]

    -For enhanced security, you can also specify the Docker image by its digest:
    +For enhanced security, specifying the Docker image by its digest ensures that the image is exactly the one reviewed and approved, as digests are unique to each image build:

    Why: The suggestion enhances the documentation by explaining the security benefits of using Docker image digests, providing clarity and justification for this practice. This is a significant improvement for users concerned with security.

    Maintainability
    Standardize Docker image naming convention in documentation

    To ensure consistency in the documentation, consider using a consistent naming
    convention for Docker images. The original image name uses a different format
    (Codium-ai/pr-agent@v2.0). It's recommended to stick to one format to avoid
    confusion.

    docs/docs/installation/github.md [37]

    -uses: docker://codiumai/pr-agent:0.23-github_action
    +uses: docker://Codium-ai/pr-agent:0.23
     
    • Apply this suggestion
    Suggestion importance[1-10]: 7

    Why: The suggestion improves maintainability by ensuring a consistent naming convention for Docker images, which helps avoid confusion. However, the original naming convention is not incorrect, so the improvement is minor.

    add a link to digest, to explain how you found the SHA. It is not trivial

    [digest](https://hub.docker.com/layers/codiumai/pr-agent/0.23-github_action/images/sha256-14165e525678ace7d9b51cda8652c2d74abb4e1d76b57c4a6ccaeba84663cc64?context=repo)

    remove the "enhanced security".
    its a bit confusing. It will not protect you from cyber attacks.
    you mean to say that it ensures without a doubt that the docker will be freezed (although in practice the v0... models are freezed anyway)

    you can also specify the Docker image by its digest:

    I mean specifying the Docker image digest enhances security because it is effective in preventing supply chain attacks.
    If the term "enhanced security" is confusing, would it be clearer to phrase it as "to prevent supply chain attacks"?
