12 skills published by Docker in its official repository, summarized in English from their SKILL.md.What is a skill?
Official Docker skill collection to help an agent build, test, debug and optimize containerized applications.
docker-agent-deploy
Covers the integration surface of Docker Agent once the configuration file is already written: expose the agent as a server (MCP, API HTTP, A2A, ACP or chat compatible OpenAI) with docker agent serve, distribute it via an OIC registry (docker agent share, for example to Docker Hub) and measure its quality with docker agent eval.
docker-sandboxes-lifecycle
Ports to the sbx standalone CLI, which executes a code agent in an isolated microVM (file system, network and Docker daemon).
docker-sandboxes-kits
Explains how to design, verify, publish or compose a Docker Sandboxes kit in v3 format: an OIC image whose manifest annotation carries the descriptor (# syntax=docker/sandbox-kit:3, kind: workload or mixin), the typical capabilities, the provide/requirement relationships and the network identifiers or rules specific to the kit.
docker-agent-config
Covers the agent.yaml (or .yml/.hcl) file of Docker Agent (open source cagent project, CLI docker agent): agents, models and suppliers, integrated tool sets or MCP, multi-agent teams with sub agents, and properties such as instruction, fallback or commands.
docker-build-strategies
Provides rules and schematics for writing, rereading or optimizing production quality Dockerfiles: multi-step buildings, layer caches, .dockerignore, non root user and image size.
docker-agent-run
Deals with Docker Agent operation: launch docker agent run (local config, alias or registry reference), choose the --safety/approval mode, isolate execution with --sandbox, and diagnose failure (missing identifiers, worktrees).
docker-destructive-guardrails
Sets the cross-sectional policy before executing or recommending a Docker command that removes, resets or alters a state irreversibly, even if the person only says "clean up", "start fresh" or "wipe everything".
docker-sandboxes-network-credentials
Doors to sbx policy (network output) and secret sbx (service secrets and registry identifiers) for a Sandbox Docker Sandboxes: what the Sandbox can achieve, and with which identifiers it authenticates.
docker-compose-patterns
Provides rules to create, modify or diagnose a Docker Composite configuration (compose.yaml or compose.override.yaml): services, health checks, order of dependencies, volumes, networks, environment variables and development overloads.
docker-project-foundations
Guides the initial implementation of a project with Docker: Dockerfile, composing.yaml and .dockerignore, favouring containerized dependencies rather than installations on the host machine.
docker-sandboxes-env
The `sbxenv.yaml` file (schemaVersion "1", still experimental) declaratively describes a Docker Sandboxes environment: agent, kits, mounts, arguments, variables, secrets, registers, links, MCP servers, ports and host commands `lifecycle:`.
docker-docs
Used to answer questions about any Docker product from up-to-date official documentation, rather than agent's brief, including requests such as "how do I..." or "this still the right way".
