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

@docker what is a Dockerfile?@docker how do I build a Docker image?@docker how do I run a Docker container?@docker what does 'docker buildx imagetools inspect' do?
Get help containerizing your project
You can ask the agent to help you containerize your existing project:
@docker can you help create a compose file for this project?@docker can you create a Dockerfile for this project?
Opening pull requests
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.
Automatically opening pull requests against your repositories is only available when the agent generates new Docker assets.
Analyze a project for vulnerabilities
The agent can help you improve your security posture with Docker Scout:
@docker can you help me find vulnerabilities in my project?@docker does my project contain any insecure dependencies?
The agent will run use Docker Scout to analyze your project's dependencies, and report whether you're vulnerable to any known CVEs.
Limitations
- The agent is currently not able to access specific files in your repository, such as the currently-opened file in your editor, or if you pass a file reference with your message in the chat message.
