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
Scanned spjoshis/claude-code-plugins at ddcf16ef7b.
The exact upstream commit SHA that was scanned is recorded, so the result refers to specific bytes.

About this skill
What it does
This skill allows AI agents to interact with and manage Docker containers. It can be used to list running containers, start new containers from images, stop existing containers, and retrieve information about container status and logs. The agent can effectively orchestrate basic Docker operations through natural language commands.
When to use it
- Development Environments: Quickly spin up development environments based on pre-defined Docker images.
- Testing & Deployment: Automate the process of running tests within containers or deploying applications.
- Troubleshooting: Examine container logs and status to diagnose issues in a deployed application.
- Infrastructure Management: Perform basic container management tasks, such as starting or stopping services.
Key capabilities
- List running Docker containers
- Start new Docker containers from images
- Stop existing Docker containers
- Retrieve container status information
- Access container logs
Example prompts
- "Show me all the currently running Docker containers."
- "Start a container named 'my-app' using the image 'nginx'."
- "Stop the container called 'database'."
- “What’s the output of the logs for my-web-app?”
Tips & gotchas
The agent requires access to a Docker environment. Ensure that the necessary permissions are configured so the AI can execute Docker commands successfully.
