A Weekend Project With Docker Agent: Four Agents, Two Config Files, One Permissions Trap
Description and use
<p>Docker Agent lets me describe a team of AI agents, their tools, and their guardrails in one config file that a platform team can review like any other piece of infrastructure. That is the part I like most. It also has a permissions trap that I reproduced in a test, and I'll show it before you copy any example rules.</p> <p>I spent a weekend-sized block of time building a small project to find out how far that idea goes. The result is <a href="https://github.com/mdabydeen/release-gate-crew" rel="noopener noreferrer">release-gate-crew</a>: four agents that review a service's container and CI
