Install target

Live repository

Not pinned. Installing fetches whatever the repository holds at the time you run the command.

No human has reviewed this code. The checks below are a static scan of the files at one commit — nobody has run this skill or judged whether it works. A skill runs with whatever access you give your agent, so read the source before you install it.

Automated safety checks

scanned

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 sundial-org/awesome-openclaw-skills at b80cde2ef8.

    The exact upstream commit SHA that was scanned is recorded, so the result refers to specific bytes.

This is a static scan, not a review. It reads the skill's files; it does not run them, and it cannot tell you whether the skill is any good or whether the code does what its description says. A skill runs with whatever access you give your agent.

About this skill

What it does

This skill provides foundational knowledge and practical abilities related to Docker. It enables users to understand containerization concepts, build images from Dockerfiles, and manage containers effectively. The skill allows for the creation of reproducible environments and simplifies application deployment across different platforms.

When to use it

  • Reproducible Development Environments: Quickly set up a consistent development environment with all necessary dependencies pre-configured in a Docker container.
  • Simplified Application Deployment: Package applications into containers for easy deployment to various cloud providers or on-premise servers.
  • Consistent Testing: Create isolated testing environments using Docker containers, ensuring tests are reliable and repeatable.
  • Microservices Architecture: Build and manage individual microservices as separate Docker containers.

Key capabilities

  • Understanding Docker concepts (images, containers, volumes, networks)
  • Writing Dockerfiles to define container builds
  • Building Docker images from Dockerfiles
  • Running and managing Docker containers
  • Working with Docker Hub or other registries

Example prompts

  • "Create a Dockerfile for a Python application that uses Flask."
  • "Build a Docker image from the provided Dockerfile."
  • "Run a container based on this Docker image, mapping port 80 to port 8080."

Tips & gotchas

  • A basic understanding of command-line interfaces is helpful for utilizing this skill effectively.
  • Docker images can be large; optimize your Dockerfiles to reduce build and download times.
