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 enables AI agents to automate the creation, deployment, and management of Docker containers. It focuses on building production-ready containers that adhere to best practices for security, performance, and maintainability. The skill supports creating Dockerfiles, optimizing existing container images, and setting up development environments.
When to use it
- Containerizing applications for deployment.
- Creating
Dockerfiles for new services. - Optimizing existing container images for better performance.
- Setting up local development environments using containers.
- Building CI/CD pipelines that utilize Docker containers.
Key capabilities
- Generating multi-stage Docker builds.
- Implementing security best practices, including running as a non-root user.
- Creating
.dockerignorefiles to exclude unnecessary files from container images. - Providing guidance on optimization techniques for container image size and build speed.
- Supporting various programming languages like Python (Django/Flask), Java (Spring Boot), and Go.
Example prompts
- "Create a Dockerfile for a Node.js application using multi-stage builds."
- "Generate a .dockerignore file for a Python Django project."
- "How can I optimize this Docker image to reduce its size?"
Tips & gotchas
- The skill emphasizes following best practices, so be sure to review the provided reference guides.
- Avoid using the
latesttag in production environments as it introduces unpredictability and potential security risks. - Ensure you are not including secrets directly within your Docker images.
