About this skill

Windsurf Dockerfile Generation

Overview

This skill enables AI-assisted Docker configuration within Windsurf. Cascade analyzes your application to generate optimized Dockerfiles with multi-stage builds, minimal base images, proper layer caching, and security best practices.

Prerequisites

  • Windsurf IDE with Cascade enabled
  • Docker installed locally
  • Application with defined dependencies
  • Understanding of containerization concepts
  • Target deployment environment defined

Instructions

  1. Analyze Application
  2. Select Base Image
  3. Generate Dockerfile
  4. Configure Security
  5. Test and Validate

See ${CLAUDE_SKILL_DIR}/references/implementation.md for detailed implementation guide.

Output

  • Optimized production Dockerfile
  • Development Dockerfile with dev tools
  • docker-compose.yml for orchestration
  • .dockerignore for build optimization

Error Handling

See ${CLAUDE_SKILL_DIR}/references/errors.md for comprehensive error handling.

Examples

See ${CLAUDE_SKILL_DIR}/references/examples.md for detailed examples.

Resources

When not to use it

  • →Applications intended for serverless-only deployment
  • →Simple local scripts without dependencies

Prerequisites

Docker runtimeDefined project dependencies

Limitations

  • →Requires manual verification of build steps
  • →Cannot infer missing environment configuration

How it compares

It builds production-ready container configurations automatically rather than hand-writing multi-stage build files.
