{{% restricted title="Early Access" %}} The Docker for GitHub Copilot extension is an early access product. {{% /restricted %}}

Here are some examples of the types of questions you can ask the Docker agent:

Ask general Docker questions

You can ask general question about Docker. For example:

  • @docker what is a Dockerfile?
  • @docker how do I build a Docker image?
  • @docker how do I run a Docker container?

Ask questions about your project

You can ask questions about your project, such as:

  • @docker what is the best way to Dockerize this project
  • @docker can you help me find vulnerabilities in my project?

The Docker agent will analyze your project, generate the necessary files, and, if applicable, offer to raise a pull request with the necessary Docker assets.

Performing actions on your behalf

Before the agent performs any actions on your behalf, such as opening a pull request for you, you're prompted to provide your consent to allow the operation. You can always roll back or back out of the changes.

Copilot action prompt

In the event that the agent encounters an error, for example during PR creation, it handles timeouts and lack of responses gracefully.
