Migrate using Docker's AI-powered assistant

Availability: Experimental
Requires: Docker Desktop 4.38.0 or later

You can use Docker's AI-powered assistant, to automatically migrate your Dockerfile to use Docker Hardened Images (DHI).

  1. Ensure Docker's AI-powered assistant is enabled.
  2. In the terminal, navigate to the directory containing your Dockerfile.
  3. Start a conversation with the assistant:
    docker ai
  4. Type:
    "Migrate my dockerfile to DHI"
  5. Follow the conversation with the assistant. The assistant will edit your Dockerfile, so when it requests access to the filesystem and more, type yes to allow the assistant to proceed.

When the migration is complete, you see a success message:

The migration to Docker Hardened Images (DHI) is complete. The updated Dockerfile
successfully builds the image, and no vulnerabilities were detected in the final image.
The functionality and optimizations of the original Dockerfile have been preserved.
Important

As with any AI tool, you must verify the assistant's edits and test your image.
