new-project-docker

new-project-docker is a skill for Claude Code from Xakki/ai-agents-skills. It costs 50 tokens per session (741 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A project starter that creates a Docker-based codebase with the files needed to build, run, configure, and log its services.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to bootstrap a new application, repository, or service with Docker, Docker Compose, a Makefile, environment files, deployment notes, and structured container logs.
Why use it?
It gives developers the same setup and commands from the first commit, reducing environment differences such as “works on my machine.”

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 A, and why

new-project-docker 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 10d 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.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 50 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

new-project-docker — new project = Docker + Makefile

Invariant: every new project is containerized from the start. Not "local first, wrap it later" — from the first commit there's a Dockerfile, docker-compose.yml, Makefile and log wiring. This kills "works on my machine", gives unified commands and turns on observability right away.

What we create in the skeleton

  1. Dockerfile — app image (multi-stage if compiled; slim base).
  2. docker-compose.yml — app service(s) + deps (db/cache/queue). Each service — restart, mem_limit/cpus, healthcheck where apt.
  3. .env + .env.example — cfg (secrets in .env, it's in .gitignore; .env.example with placeholders in git).
  4. Makefile — unified commands (template in templates.md): help, info, up, down, ps, restart name=…, logs name=…, build, config, log-test. HOST_IP computed dynamically (hostname -I).
  5. Logging — wire up skill fluent-logging right away: submodule/composer libs, overlay docker/fluent-logging.yml, env block, COMPOSE_FILE. Containers write structured JSON to stdout → fluent-bit → Graylog.
  6. .gitignore, README.md/DEPLOY.md with the command list.

Happy-path

  1. Create repo + git init. Commits — per git-flow core.
  2. Dockerfile + docker-compose.yml (app + deps).
  3. Makefile from templates.md — adjust service names/ports.
  4. .env/.env.example (incl. fluent-logging block from skill fluent-logging).
  5. Wire up logs (skill fluent-logging): lib + overlay + COMPOSE_FILE.
  6. make configmake upmake log-test → check arrival in Graylog.

Principles

  • Host ports — unique on the machine (don't collide with other projects; ss -ltn). Bind to 127.0.0.1:<port> if not needed externally.
  • COMPOSE_PROJECT_NAME set in .env (else broken container names and prefixes in Graylog).
  • Resource limits (mem_limit/cpus) with headroom — but set them, don't leave unset.
  • Deps — managed images (postgres/redis/…), don't install into the app image.
  • Deploy = docker compose build && up -d (+ git submodule update --init if log lib is a submodule). Document in DEPLOY.md.

What ships with it

1 file 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.

new-project-docker is a skill published in the GitHub repository Xakki/ai-agents-skills (6 stars, last pushed 20d ago), licensed MIT. It adds 50 tokens to every session and 741 once invoked, about $0.0003 per session on Opus 5. A static security scan graded it A with 0 findings. No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-08-31.
