A team has a pipeline that builds and pushes an image to the GitLab registry. A separate deployment job needs to pull this image and run it. The deployment job runs on a runner with the `docker` executor. The team wants to avoid using the `docker:dind` service in the deployment job to reduce resource usage. Which alternative approach allows the deployment job to run the image without a Docker daemon?

Use the `shell` executor and run `docker run` in the job script

Use `kaniko` to pull and run the image

Use the `docker` executor's built-in ability to run the job's `image:` directly, and set the job's `image:` to the built image

Use `docker run` in the job script, relying on the runner's host Docker daemon

A pipeline builds an image and pushes it to the registry with the tag `$CI_COMMIT_SHA`. A subsequent deployment job needs to use this exact image. Which reference should the deployment job use to pull the image?

$CI_PROJECT_PATH:$CI_COMMIT_SHA

$CI_REGISTRY_IMAGE:$CI_COMMIT_SHA
