docker-development

docker-development is a skill for Claude Code from netresearch/docker-development-skill. It costs 70 tokens per session (1,684 once invoked), scanned C, original, no licence file.

A guide for development work involving Docker, a system for packaging applications and their dependencies into containers. It covers container files, Compose configurations, image builds, build automation, security checks, and CI/CD testing.

In plain words
What is it for?
Writing Dockerfiles, configuring Docker Compose, creating multi-stage builds, using Docker Bake, auditing container security, improving .dockerignore files, and testing containers in CI/CD.
Why use it?
It provides project guidance for common container tasks and helps keep builds, local environments, and automated tests consistent. It also addresses container security and unnecessary files in build contexts.

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.

Security

Grade C, and why

docker-development scanned grade C with 4 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 4d 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.

Asks for rootlowPrivilege escalation

A mod that escalates privileges can change anything on the machine, not only the project.

| `chmod 777` | Use specific permissions: `chmod 550` |

Downgraded: this mod is about security review, or the phrase is quoted, so it is likely naming the pattern rather than instructing it.

Reaches for credential filesmediumPrivilege escalation

SSH keys, cloud credentials, git-credentials, .npmrc, /etc/shadow: reading these is how a config file becomes a credential leak.

RUN --mount=type=secret,id=ssh_key,dst=/root/.ssh/id_rsa git clone [email protected]:org/repo.git

Downgraded: this mod is about security review, or the phrase is quoted, so it is likely naming the pattern rather than instructing it.

Recursive force deletemediumDestructive command

rm -rf with a variable or a broad path is one typo away from removing the wrong tree.

rm -rf /var/lib/apt/lists/*

Downgraded: this mod is about security review, or the phrase is quoted, so it is likely naming the pattern rather than instructing it.

A licence we could not identify

The repository carries a LICENSE file, but it is custom or dual enough that GitHub cannot name it and neither can this catalogue. Unknown terms are not permission, so the body is not copied here. Read the licence at the source and decide for yourself.

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.

docker-development is a skill published in the GitHub repository netresearch/docker-development-skill (24 stars, last pushed yesterday), with no licence file. It adds 70 tokens to every session and 1,684 once invoked, about $0.0003 per session on Opus 5.5. A static security scan graded it C with 4 findings (asks for root, reaches for credential files, recursive force delete). No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-08-30.
