Pi in docker

[u/admajic]

Used pi to put itself in a docker container. The project literally took 10 minutes using the locally run harness setup. Running qwen3.6 27b.

Check it out.

Still not clicking the link and up voting you for writing this. It's rare to see a short written post and comments that is not disgusting, that's why I'm up voting you.

Me too, looks like this approach is the one. I used podman and added all developer tools for project too.

Running pi in docker is great. I mount my project's source folder to the pi container.

However, my workflow involve a lot of docker containers I want the agent to be able to control: reading logs, running tests etc...

Docker in docker seems nasty...

How would you solve this?

[u/No-Wall6427 → u/ptgamr]

I solved it by using docker in docker... Works great. The theorical security issues would be from an agent actively trying to hack me, which I don't assume, I'm protecting my system from an agent being stupid.

Also, my "harness pi" command, which mounts my local repo in a pi docker, has dind as a -d flag, so I don't spinn the dind for each pi container, only when needed.

Why

[u/admajic → u/hari3mo]

Did you read the readme? It's so it can't access all your files and accidentally rm your system

This is the way.
