What is frappe-manager?

A guide to using Frappe Manager, a tool that creates and manages Frappe development environments in Docker containers. Docker runs applications in isolated environments.

Creating sites, installing Frappe apps, starting and stopping environments, and viewing logs.

It provides repeatable local and testing environments without setting up every component manually.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Model	Per session	Once invoked
Fable 5.1	$0.00041	$0.01291
Opus 5.5	$0.00016	$0.00516
Sonnet 5.5	$0.00008	$0.00258
Haiku 4.5	$0.00004	$0.00129

Security

Grade A, and why

frappe-manager scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 2mo ago.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

Frappe Manager

Manage Docker-based Frappe development environments using Frappe Manager (FM).

When to use

Setting up a local Frappe development environment
Creating isolated test environments
Agent-driven development (vibe coding) workflows
Quick prototyping without full bench setup
Reproducible environments across machines

Inputs required

Docker installed and running
Python 3.11+ with pipx
Site/bench name
Apps to install (frappe, erpnext, hrms, custom)
Environment type (dev/prod)

Procedure

0) Install Frappe Manager

# Install via pipx
pipx install frappe-manager

# Enable shell completion
fm --install-completion

1) Create a site

# Basic site (frappe only)
fm create mysite

# Site with ERPNext
fm create mysite --apps erpnext:version-15

# Site with multiple apps
fm create mysite --apps erpnext --apps hrms --environment dev

# Production site with SSL
fm create example.com --apps erpnext --env prod --ssl letsencrypt

2) Manage sites

# List all sites
fm list

# Start/stop site
fm start mysite
fm stop mysite

# View site info
fm info mysite

# View logs (follow)
fm logs mysite -f

# Delete site
fm delete mysite

3) Development workflow

# Access shell inside container
fm shell mysite

# Inside container - common commands:
bench new-app my_custom_app
bench --site mysite install-app my_custom_app
bench --site mysite migrate
bench build --app my_custom_app
bench --site mysite run-tests --app my_custom_app

# Exit shell
exit

# Open in VSCode
fm code mysite

# Open with debugger
fm code mysite --debugger

4) Agent-driven development

Perfect for AI agents developing Frappe apps:

# 1. Setup: Create fresh environment
fm create testsite --apps erpnext:version-15 --environment dev
fm start testsite

# 2. Develop: Enter shell, create app
fm shell testsite
bench new-app my_app
bench --site testsite install-app my_app
# ... make code changes ...
exit

# 3. Test: Run tests
fm shell testsite
bench --site testsite run-tests --app my_app
exit

# 4. Verify: Check logs
fm logs testsite -f

# 5. Reset if needed: Start fresh
fm stop testsite
fm delete testsite
fm create testsite --apps erpnext:version-15 --environment dev

What ships with it

7 files beside SKILL.md in the same directory: the scripts, references and assets a skill reads on demand. Not counted in the per-session cost; read them before you install if any of them is executable.

Changes

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.
