Analyzes Dockerfiles to optimize layer caching and minimize build times for PHP applications.
The Docker Layer Optimizer skill provides deep analysis of Docker configurations, specifically tailored for PHP ecosystems. It identifies common anti-patterns such as premature file copying, missing .dockerignore files, and suboptimal layer ordering that causes unnecessary cache invalidation. By applying industry-standard principles like multi-stage builds and BuildKit cache mounts, it helps developers achieve significantly faster CI/CD pipelines and smaller production images through automated refactoring and best-practice recommendations.
