Description

Inspect Docker containers, volumes, and compose services for Pixel Detective and Dev Graph. Use when the user asks to check Docker state, list containers or volumes, or extract data from Docker without running heavy services.

# Docker Helper

Use this skill to read Docker state for the repo and list stored data sources.

## Quickstart
- Status + capabilities: `powershell -ExecutionPolicy Bypass -File skills\\docker-helper\\scripts\\docker_inventory.ps1 -Action status -ListCapabilities`

## Workflow

1. Confirm Docker is available
- `docker version`
- `docker compose version`

2. Inspect containers and compose services
- `docker ps -a`
- `docker compose ps`

3. Inspect volumes and storage
- `docker volume ls`
- `docker system df`
- For repo volumes, run:
  - `docker volume inspect qdrant_storage`
  - `docker volume inspect neo4j_data`

4. Report findings
- Note which services are up, stopped, or missing.
- Identify which volumes exist and their mountpoints.

## Script
- Run: `powershell -ExecutionPolicy Bypass -File skills\docker-helper\scripts\docker_inventory.ps1`
- With volume details: `-ShowVolumes`
- List capabilities: `-ListCapabilities`
- Action examples:
  - `-Action status`
  - `-Action start -Target neo4j`
  - `-Action stop -Target dev_graph_api`
  - `-Action restart -Target qdrant_db`
  - `-Action logs -Target dev_graph_ui -LogsTail 200`

## Notes
- This skill can start/stop/restart services via docker compose in the repo root.
- `docker compose` actions auto-detect the repo root (by locating `docker-compose.yml`).
- The compose file may warn that the `version` field is obsolete; ignore the warning.
