Create docker skill
Skill richfrem/agent-plugins-skills/plugins/agent-scaffolders/skills/create-docker-skill
Scaffolds an agent skill with a Docker runtime environment. NOT for normal local skills (use `create-skill`) and NOT for Azure hosted agents (use `create-azure-agent`).From its SKILL.md

One thing to look at
- 4 stars4 stars. Stars are a popularity signal and not a quality one, but at this level it is likely that nobody has read this closely except its author, and you would be relying on your own review.

Follow the create-docker-skill skill workflow to scaffold a compliant agent skill
that depends on containerized runtimes (Docker, Nextflow, HPC).
Inputs
$ARGUMENTS— optional skill name or use-case description. Omit to start with discovery.
Steps
- If
$ARGUMENTSprovides a skill name, use it to seed the discovery phase - Follow the create-docker-skill phased workflow: determine container runtime and workflow type, gather environment check requirements, design pre-flight validation and subprocess execution scaffolding, then generate the skill directory
- Report the created skill path and Docker environment setup instructions
Output
Skill directory with SKILL.md containing pre-flight environment checks, subprocess
execution patterns, security-override config, and Docker-aware error handling.
Edge Cases
- If
$ARGUMENTSis empty: begin with discovery — do not assume Docker is available - If Docker is not installed in the target environment: generate graceful degradation
- If the workflow uses HPC or Nextflow instead of Docker: adapt scaffolding accordingly

Grouped from the skills themselves: near-identical wordings counted once, and counted by distinct author, so one author publishing three of these counts once. Length counted with cl100k_base; the agent that loads this file may tokenize it differently.
