Docker tool to handle all the commands related to docker running in host computer?

I may be wrong. But I saw this old phidata tool to control docker instance, control container and general stuffs with docker from old docs somewhere on the internet.

What was the original usecase of this? Was it completely controlling docker?

I think if there is some agentic tool that can work with dockers containers running in the host computer, that would be awesome.
Like: docker compose up, interact with the container in interactive shell mode, close compose, run and stop dockerfile,.

Basically, a tool that handles major docker tasks on behalf of host.

This will also also run code generated by agent in an isolated container environment.

I think you can do this currently with shell command as well but we would require more guardrails and for that a separate dockertool make sense.

What are your thoughts on this guys? I think it would be a solid tool and a true new agentic workflow unlock. 😀

There is literally docker package for python that lets you do everything docker command lets you do.
