Automated safety checks
This skill passed all 6 checks. We read its files at one commit and looked for the things that make a skill dangerous to run — not for whether it works.
Declares what it does: passed
SKILL.md parses and declares a name and a description.
SKILL.md exists, its frontmatter parses, and it declares a name and a description.
No undeclared network calls: passed
Makes no network calls.
Every host the skill dials — from its scripts, its config endpoints or the commands it tells the agent to run — is either well-known package and API infrastructure or declared in its own frontmatter. Links in documentation are not counted.
No obfuscated payloads: passed
No encoded or obfuscated payloads.
No base64, hex or compressed blob is decoded and then executed, and no encoded shell commands.
No credential access: passed
Reads no keys, tokens, keychains or credential files.
Neither the code nor the SKILL.md instructions read SSH keys, cloud credentials, keychains, token stores, browser cookie databases or dotfiles that hold secrets.
No pipe-to-shell installers: passed
No pipe-to-shell or download-and-run installers.
No `curl … | sh` pattern, in the code or in the instructions, that runs code fetched at run time.
Pinned to a commit: passed

About this skill
What it does
This skill assists users with Docker commands and operations. It can generate docker run commands based on user descriptions, help troubleshoot common Docker issues, and explain Docker concepts. The agent leverages its knowledge of Dockerfile syntax and best practices to provide helpful guidance.
When to use it
- You need help constructing a complex
docker runcommand with specific port mappings or volume mounts. - You're encountering an error while building a Docker image and require assistance in identifying the root cause.
- You want a clear explanation of a Docker concept, such as networking or container lifecycle management.
- You need help understanding how to optimize your Dockerfile for smaller image sizes.
Key capabilities
- Generates
docker runcommands - Troubleshoots Docker errors
- Explains Docker concepts
- Provides guidance on optimizing Dockerfiles
Example prompts
- "Generate a docker run command that maps port 8080 on my host to port 80 in the container."
- "I'm getting an error 'permission denied' when trying to mount a volume. What could be wrong?"
- "Explain Docker networking in simple terms."
Tips & gotchas
The skill assumes basic familiarity with Docker terminology. Providing specific details about your environment (e.g., image name, host OS) will improve the accuracy of its responses.
