Conversation
Adds the Docker client tools (docker CLI, Compose v2 plugin, and Buildx) to every published dev image so `docker`, `docker compose`, and the standalone `docker-compose` command are ready to use out of the box. This removes the need for customers to install Docker via setup commands to run Docker Compose–based workflows in Warp hosted sandboxes. - Installed by default via a new INSTALL_DOCKER build arg (defaults to true), overridable with --build-arg INSTALL_DOCKER=false for slimmer images. - Uses pinned static binaries for the docker CLI, compose plugin, and buildx, supporting both linux/amd64 and linux/arm64. - Only client tools are installed; a Docker daemon is provided by the sandbox host at runtime.

Summary
Preinstalls the Docker client tools in every
warpdotdev/dev-*image sodocker,docker compose, and the standalonedocker-composecommand are ready to use out of the box in Warp hosted sandboxes.This resolves REMOTE-2140: customers running Docker Compose–based workflows in Warp hosted sandboxes previously had to install Docker/Compose themselves via setup commands (or maintain a custom image). Now the tooling ships in the regular images.
What changed
Dockerfile: New
INSTALL_DOCKERbuild arg (defaults totrue) that installs:dockerCLI (extracted from Docker's static binary bundle)docker composeanddocker-composedocker buildx, used bydocker compose build)Pinned versions,
linux/amd64+linux/arm64support. Build with--build-arg INSTALL_DOCKER=falsefor a slimmer image.README: New "Docker & Docker Compose" section documenting the preinstalled tooling and clarifying that only the client tools are installed — a Docker daemon is provided by the sandbox host at runtime (e.g. Docker-routed sandboxes).
Because the tooling is installed by default and the build workflow does not override
INSTALL_DOCKER, all published images (base, all language variants, and their-agentsvariants) get Docker + Compose.Validation
200for bothx86_64/amd64andaarch64/arm64.tar --strip-components=1 ... docker/dockerextraction places thedockerCLI binary at the expected path.Note: a full multi-arch image build was not run in this environment (no Docker daemon available); CI's
build-imagesworkflow will build and push on merge.Conversation: https://staging.warp.dev/conversation/8648ade1-c0f7-42af-a79e-235096d1d9e5
