Roadmap

This page records possible future work, not delivery promises or current behavior. Shipped behavior belongs in the player and technical guides.

Docker Foundations

The current three Docker worlds intentionally support only listing with fixed filters, logs, sanitized inspection, bounded lifecycle actions, removal of stopped attempt-owned containers, and option-free management of internal attempt-owned networks. Fixture health probes and crash loops are fixed behaviors chosen by the mission.

Possible later increments include:

  • environment-aware container creation through a limited docker run;
  • limited port publication;
  • bounded, attempt-owned volumes (they attach only at container creation, so they depend on a limited docker run, and a fresh named volume is not writable by the fixture's unprivileged user);
  • reachability probes that check traffic between containers, not just shared network membership;
  • Dockerfile or Compose concepts, possibly taught in the simulated shell;
  • restart-to-recover health lessons, which need fixture state that survives a restart.

Each expansion would widen the external-engine boundary. It requires its own parser contract, threat model, resource ownership rules, cleanup behavior, and real-engine integration coverage before becoming gameplay. Privileged mode, host bind mounts, host networking, devices, and Docker socket exposure remain out of scope.

Delivery and distribution

Possible follow-ups include:

  • scheduled govulncheck ./... after its update behavior is understood;
  • artifact attestations for released archives;
  • opt-in scheduled Docker lifecycle testing;
  • signed checksums, macOS signing and notarization, or a Homebrew tap when external binary distribution justifies their credentials and maintenance.

Curriculum and product ideas

Longer-term ideas include external mission packs, streaks, efficiency medals, and generated daily incidents. Kubernetes remains future scope and would need an isolated disposable cluster plus a separate safety design.

When a proposal ships, remove it from this page and update its canonical current guide in the same change.
