Does it help with debugging container issues?

Yes, the skill provides specific troubleshooting checklists and commands for validating YAML, inspecting health logs, and verifying environment variables.

Can I use this for complex service dependencies?

Absolutely. It includes patterns for the 'depends_on' attribute with 'service_healthy' conditions to ensure services start in the correct order based on actual readiness.

Does this skill support the latest Docker Compose standards?

Yes, it follows the current specification where the 'version' field is deprecated and configurations start directly with 'services' for better compatibility.

How does it handle development versus production environments?

It utilizes the Base + Override pattern, allowing you to maintain a core configuration while layering environment-specific settings for dev, staging, or production.
