Docker documentation-first workflow for Docker-specific questions, troubleshooting, command planning, image/build work, container/runtime operations, Compose behavior, networking, volumes, registries, and diagnostics. Use when the request is clearly about Docker itself: the `docker` CLI, Docker Engine, Dockerfiles, BuildKit/buildx, Docker Compose, images, containers, registries, volumes, networks, contexts, rootless Docker, or Docker Desktop/Engine behavior where Docker-specific semantics matter. Do not use for generic Linux administration, generic OCI/container theory, generic shell work, or Kubernetes/orchestration questions unless the Docker layer is specifically what is being discussed or debugged.
