+## Global Options
+
+### `unstable`
+
+The `--unstable` flag indicates that the scope and API of a feature might still change.
+Otherwise the feature is generally production ready and fully supported. For example,
+`cdk gc` is gated behind an `--unstable` flag:
+
+```bash
+cdk gc --unstable=gc

+The command will fail if `--unstable=gc` is not passed in, which acknowledges that the user
+is aware of the caveats in place for the feature.
