The developer-kit-devops plugin provides specialized agents for Docker containerization and GitHub Actions CI/CD pipeline development. It enables production-ready container configurations and secure, efficient deployment workflows.

Agents

Agent	Purpose
`general-docker-expert`	Docker containerization, multi-stage builds, Docker Compose
`github-actions-pipeline-expert`	GitHub Actions workflows, multi-platform deployments, reusable workflows

Quick Start

Docker Containerization

Invoke the Docker expert when you need:

Production-ready Dockerfiles
Multi-stage build optimization
Docker Compose configurations
Container security hardening

# Example: Ask Claude to create a Dockerfile for your application
# Claude will automatically invoke the docker expert when relevant

CI/CD Pipeline

Invoke the GitHub Actions expert when you need:

Workflow creation and optimization
Multi-environment deployments (AWS, GCP, Azure)
OIDC authentication setup
Reusable workflows and composite actions
