What the skill teaches

Docker's skill for the day-to-day lifecycle of local Docker Sandboxes, where the standalone sbx CLI runs a coding agent such as Claude, Codex, Gemini or OpenCode in an isolated microVM with its own Docker daemon. It covers creating and running sandboxes, reattaching by name, listing, stopping, removing and pruning them, running commands and copying files, publishing ports, and choosing between a direct bind mount of the working tree and a separate clone so the agent cannot write to the host checkout. Network policy, credentials and environment files belong to other Docker skills.

Capabilities

  • Create, run and reattach to sbx sandboxes
  • Stop, remove and prune sandboxes
  • Choose bind-mount or clone isolation for a repository
  • Run commands, copy files and publish ports
