## What docker does, in the publisher's words

Inspect, diagnose, and review local Docker environments and Dockerfiles: containers, Compose projects, and best practices.

An Agent Plugin (spec 1.0.0).

A skills-only plugin that teaches agents to work with the docker and docker compose CLIs and review Dockerfiles, which commands to run, in what order, and what the output means. No MCP server, no external dependencies.

- Lightweight and dependency-free (agents already have docker CLI access).
- Read/inspect before mutation; destructive operations are never automatic.
- Dockerfile review adds a distinct, valuable workflow.
- Docker CLI + daemon (docker), and the compose plugin for diagnose-compose.
- Shell access for the agent.

## Skills

- diagnose-compose: Explain and inspect a docker compose project: services, networks, volumes, dependencies, overrides, and effective merged configuration. Use when the user asks what a compose file does, how services connect, or why a compose-based stack is misconfigured.
- diagnose-container: Diagnose why a Docker container is failing, unhealthy, crash-looping, or not starting. Use when a container exits with an error, is restarting, reports unhealthy, or a service is unreachable.
- inspect-docker-environment: Produce a read-only inventory of a local Docker environment: running and stopped containers, images, networks, volumes, and disk usage. Use when getting oriented in an unfamiliar Docker setup or before proposing container changes.
- review-dockerfile: Review a Dockerfile for correctness, best practices, and security: base image, layers, caching, secrets, and image size. Use when writing, auditing, or optimizing a Dockerfile.
