Author, build, run, and publish Docker images. Covers Dockerfile best practices, multi-stage builds, BuildKit features, container runtime options, docker-compose patterns, registry authentication and tagging, and Docker Scout vulnerability scanning.
- Skill name:
docker-image-management - Source: skills/docker-image-management
What it does¶
The skill gives an agent a standard container workflow, from requirements through build, test, and publish. It loads the reference file for the specific task, whether building, running, or publishing, before giving guidance. It also includes a debugging checklist that maps common symptoms to the action to take, templates for common runtimes, and a helper script for build and run operations.
Where it applies¶
Use it when an agent writes a Dockerfile or compose file, builds and runs containers, or publishes an image to a registry.
Install¶
Using npx skills (recommended — works across all agents)¶
# Install globally for all detected agents
npx skills add CowboyLogic/ai-dev --skill docker-image-management -g
# Install for a specific agent only
npx skills add CowboyLogic/ai-dev --skill docker-image-management --agent <agent> -g
