# Send Docker Compose to your agent
Hand the extracted package to your coding agent with a concrete install brief instead of figuring it out manually.
## Fast path
- Download the package from Yavira.
- Extract it into a folder your agent can access.
- Paste one of the prompts below and point your agent at the extracted folder.
## Suggested prompts
### New install

```text
I downloaded a skill package from Yavira. Read SKILL.md from the extracted folder and install it by following the included instructions. Tell me what you changed and call out any manual steps you could not complete.
```
### Upgrade existing

```text
I downloaded an updated skill package from Yavira. Read SKILL.md from the extracted folder, compare it with my current installation, and upgrade it while preserving any custom configuration unless the package docs explicitly say otherwise. Summarize what changed and any follow-up checks I should run.
```

## Documentation

### depends_on Ready Condition

depends_on: alone only waits for container start—service likely not ready yet
Add healthcheck + condition for actual readiness:

depends_on:
  db:
    condition: service_healthy

Without healthcheck defined on target service, service_healthy fails

### Healthcheck start_period

healthcheck:
  test: ["CMD", "pg_isready"]
  start_period: 30s

start_period: initial grace period—health failures don't count during this time
Slow-starting services (databases, Java apps) need adequate start_period
Without it, container marked unhealthy before it finishes initializing

### Volume Destruction

docker compose down preserves volumes
docker compose down -v DELETES ALL VOLUMES—data loss
-v often added by habit from tutorials—catastrophic in production
Named volumes survive down; anonymous volumes deleted on down

### Resource Limits in Development

deploy:
  resources:
    limits:
      memory: 512M

Set limits during development—catches memory issues early
Unlimited container can consume all host memory—kills other processes
Copy limits to production config—don't discover limits in prod

### .dockerignore

Without it: node_modules, .git, secrets copied into image
Mirrors .gitignore syntax—create at same level as Dockerfile
Large build context = slow builds, large images, potential security issues
At minimum: .git, node_modules, .env, *.log, build artifacts

### Override File Pattern

docker-compose.yml: base config that works everywhere
docker-compose.override.yml: auto-loaded, development-specific (mounts, ports)
Production: docker compose -f docker-compose.yml -f docker-compose.prod.yml up
Keep secrets and environment-specific config in override files, not base

### Profiles for Optional Services

services:
  mailhog:
    profiles: [dev]

Services with profiles don't start by default—cleaner docker compose up
Enable with --profile dev
Use for: test databases, debug tools, mock services, admin interfaces

### Environment Variable Precedence

Shell environment (highest)
.env file in compose directory
env_file: directive
environment: in compose file (lowest for that var)

.env must be exactly .env—.env.local not auto-loaded
Debug with docker compose config—shows resolved values
