Docker Skills for AI Coding Agents

Docker-authored knowledge skills that improve AI coding agent output for Docker-related tasks. Skills are authored once as portable SKILL.md directories and discovered automatically by any compliant agent through standard skill paths.

The installation steps below are self-contained; the catalog-generated inventory also records Docker Docs guidance for each distribution surface.

Skills

Skills are grouped by the Docker product they cover. The table is generated from catalog.yaml by task catalog; edit the catalog, not the table.

Product Description Skills
Dockerfile & Buildsource Containerize a project and write, optimize, and harden Dockerfiles and images. docker-project-foundations — Guidance for initializing and structuring a Dockerized project.docker-build-strategies — Strategies for efficient, secure, and optimized Docker image builds.
Docker Composesource Wire multi-container stacks with robust, maintainable Compose configurations. docker-compose-patterns — Patterns for robust, maintainable Docker Compose configurations.
Docker Sandboxes Run AI coding agents in isolated microVMs with the sbx CLI, including network policy, credentials, environments, and kits. docker-sandboxes-lifecycle — Create, reattach to, and tear down local sbx sandboxes; choose workspace bind-mount vs --clone isolation.docker-sandboxes-network-credentials — Configure sandbox network egress policy and provision service/registry credentials safely through the proxy-injection model.docker-sandboxes-env (experimental) — Author, plan, and run declarative sbxenv.yaml environments (workspace, kits, args, host lifecycle hooks, secrets/registries/bindings, ports) for Docker Sandboxes.docker-sandboxes-kits (experimental) — Author, validate, package, sign, and compose reusable sandbox/mixin kits (spec.yaml, schema v2).
Docker Agentsource Author, run, and ship AI agents with Docker Agent, from agent.yaml to serving and distribution. docker-agent-config — Reference and rules for authoring agent.yaml configs for Docker Agent (cagent) — agents, models, providers, toolsets, and multi-agent teams.docker-agent-run — Rules for running Docker Agent locally — safety/approval modes, sandbox isolation, aliases, worktrees, and troubleshooting a run.docker-agent-deploy — Rules for exposing Docker Agents as servers, distributing them via OCI registries, and evaluating them for regressions in CI.
Cross-Product Guardrails and policies that apply across every Docker skill product. docker-destructive-guardrails — Cross-product policy for confirming irreversible or destructive Docker operations before running them.
