Does this skill support Docker Compose V2?

Yes, it follows the modern Compose Specification and uses the 'docker compose' V2 plugin syntax as the standard interface.

Can it help reduce my Docker image sizes?

Absolutely. The skill defaults to multi-stage build strategies and recommends minimal base images like Alpine to ensure your production images are as small as possible.

How does it handle local development workflows?

It provides configurations for Docker Compose Watch, allowing containers to automatically sync files, restart, or rebuild whenever you make changes to your local source code.

Does it include security hardening for containers?

Yes, it enforces security patterns such as running applications as non-root users, utilizing .dockerignore files, and managing sensitive data via Docker Secrets.
