docker-via-wsl
docker-via-wsl is a Containers & Kubernetes skill for AI agents, published by JMBeresford in the retrom repository on GitHub. Skillspace rates docker-via-wsl C (77/100) and it passed the safety scan; the rating is based on static analysis only.
Use when YOU (the AI agent) are running on Windows OUTSIDE WSL (Git Bash/MSYS/PowerShell shell) and need to run ANY docker / docker compose command. Docker Desktop runs on the WSL2 engine, so commands must be re-issued INSIDE WSL via wsl.exe -- running them from the Windows shell on a network/SMB drive (Z:, UNC) corrupts bind-mount paths. Does NOT apply if your shell is already inside WSL. Triggers on: docker, docker compose, docker-compose, container, bind mount, volume, 'is a directory', mount source wrong, Windows + Docker Desktop, WSL.
