Manage Docker containers and Compose projects via OpenClaw tools
Manage Docker containers and Compose projects via OpenClaw tools
Hand the extracted package to your coding agent with a concrete install brief instead of figuring it out manually.
I downloaded a skill package from Yavira. Read SKILL.md from the extracted folder and install it by following the included instructions. Then review README.md for any prerequisites, environment setup, or post-install checks. Tell me what you changed and call out any manual steps you could not complete.
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. Then review README.md for any prerequisites, environment setup, or post-install checks. Summarize what changed and any follow-up checks I should run.
OpenClaw plugin for Docker container operations and Docker Compose project control.
Docker daemon connection via unix socket or TCP Optional TLS for remote daemon access Read and write container tools Docker Compose integration via docker compose CLI Safety controls with readOnly and allowedOperations Configurable command timeout
Docker Engine installed and running on the host Docker CLI (docker command) available in PATH (required for Compose operations) Access to the Docker socket (/var/run/docker.sock) or a remote Docker daemon via TCP
npm install @elvatis_com/openclaw-docker
Use readOnly: true if you only need observation (ps, logs, inspect). This limits the blast radius. TLS keys: If using TCP with TLS, keep your PEM files protected. Only configure trusted certificate paths. Compose directories: The plugin runs docker compose commands in whichever directories you configure as composeProjects. Only configure trusted project paths. Least privilege: Run the plugin in an environment with minimal Docker permissions when possible.
