containers

containers is a skill for Claude Code from xobotyi/cc-foundry. It costs 88 tokens per session (3,626 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

Guidelines for managing Docker and Podman containers, including image builds, Compose services, networking, storage, health checks, and security settings. Containers package an application and its dependencies so it can run in an isolated environment.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use them when creating or reviewing Dockerfiles, Compose configurations, container security settings, volumes, networks, health checks, or deployment setup.
Why use it?
They help make container setups safer and easier to debug, with attention to non-root execution, limited permissions, read-only filesystems, secrets, and image vulnerabilities.

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

containers scanned grade A with 1 finding 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 1mo 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.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 221 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Containers

Security is not optional. Every container runs non-root, with dropped capabilities, on a minimal base image. Convenience defaults that weaken security posture are bugs, not trade-offs.

Security Rules

These are non-negotiable defaults for every container configuration. Apply unconditionally — no exceptions for development, convenience, or "temporary" setups.

  • Run as non-root. Add a USER instruction with explicit UID/GID. Never run production containers as root.
  • Drop all capabilities. --cap-drop=ALL, then add back only what the application genuinely requires. Most applications need zero.
  • Enable no-new-privileges. --security-opt=no-new-privileges prevents setuid/setgid escalation.
  • Use read-only filesystem. --read-only with tmpfs mounts for /tmp, /run, and any directories the app writes to.
  • Never pass secrets via ENV. Visible in docker inspect, logs, and child processes. Use mounted secret files or Docker secrets.
  • Scan images before deployment. Use Docker Scout, Trivy, or Grype in CI. Block images with critical CVEs.
  • Use distroless for production when possible. No shell means no shell-based attacks and dramatically fewer CVEs.
  • Never use --privileged. It removes almost all security restrictions. If a workload claims to need it, decompose the requirement into specific capabilities.
  • Never mount the Docker socket (/var/run/docker.sock) into containers. It grants root-equivalent control over the host. Use purpose-built APIs or socket proxies with restricted access.
  • Use --init or tini/dumb-init for PID 1. Regular applications don't reap zombie processes or handle signals correctly as PID 1. Use docker run --init, RunInit=true in Quadlets, or install tini in the Dockerfile. Without this, docker stop waits for the kill timeout and zombies accumulate.
  • Verify supply chain integrity. Pin images to digest, generate SBOMs (Syft, Docker Scout), sign images with cosign/Sigstore. Use VEX documents to distinguish exploitable from non-exploitable CVEs. Block unsigned images in CI.

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.

containers is a skill published in the GitHub repository xobotyi/cc-foundry (22 stars, last pushed 7d ago), licensed MIT. It adds 88 tokens to every session and 3,626 once invoked, about $0.0004 per session on Opus 5.5. A static security scan graded it A with 1 finding (makes network calls). No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-08-30.
