+# PRD prd-new: macOS Container backend
+
+- **Status:** Draft
+- **Author:** Codex
+- **Created:** 2026-06-10
+- **Issue:** #220
+
+## Summary
+
+Add an experimental `macos-container` backend that integrates Apple's
+`container` CLI as a host runtime on macOS. The first shipped slice
+registers the backend and implements reusable host primitives
+(`build`, `exec`, `cp`, image inspection, cleanup, active
+enumeration). Follow-up slices make launch runnable with the proven
+two-network sidecar topology and add real-runtime coverage, without
+weakening bot-bottle's sidecar egress model.
+
+## Problem
+
+bot-bottle currently has two local execution paths:
+
+- `docker`, which runs the whole bottle topology through Docker
+  Compose.
+- `smolmachines`, which runs the agent in smolvm but still depends on
+  Docker for the sidecar bundle and image-building pipeline.
+
+Issue #220 explored removing Docker as a host dependency. A follow-up
+review comment verified that smolvm can publish guest ports back to
+host loopback and that another smolvm guest can reach that service
+through the existing per-bottle loopback alias plus `--allow-cidr`
+path. That keeps the VM-contained sidecar direction viable and rejects
+the host-process sidecar fallback.
+
+Apple's `container` CLI is another macOS-native way to run OCI images
+as lightweight Linux VMs. Its current command surface includes
+Docker-like `build`, `run`, `exec`, `cp`, port publishing, image
+inspection, and user-defined networks. That makes it a plausible local
+backend, but it does not remove the need to preserve bot-bottle's
+sidecar enforcement property: the agent must not have a direct egress
+path around the egress sidecar.
+
+## Goals / Success Criteria
+
+- `--backend=macos-container` and
+  `BOT_BOTTLE_BACKEND=macos-container` are accepted by the existing
+  backend selector.
+- Backend availability is true only on macOS hosts with `container` on
+  `PATH`.
+- The backend has tested wrappers for Apple Container image build,
+  image inspection, container `exec`, container `cp`, cleanup, and
+  active-agent enumeration.
+- Full launch uses a host-only internal network for the agent and a
+  separate NAT egress network for the sidecar bundle.
+- The agent container does not attach to the egress network. It reaches
+  allowed outbound hosts through HTTP(S)_PROXY pointing at the
+  sidecar's internal-network IP.
+- `bottle.git` / git-gate bottles fail loudly on this backend until a
+  safe Apple Container key-delivery path exists.
+- Real-runtime integration coverage is present and guarded by macOS and
+  Apple Container availability.
+
+## Non-goals
+
+- Do not remove or deprecate the Docker backend.
+- Do not change the default backend from `smolmachines`.
+- Do not run sidecar daemons as host processes.
+- Do not launch a degraded backend where the agent can bypass the
+  egress sidecar through direct network access.
+- Do not require Docker Desktop as part of the macOS Container backend.
+
+## Design
+
+### Backend name
+
+The selectable backend name is `macos-container`. The Python package
+uses `bot_bottle.backend.macos_container` because module names cannot
+contain hyphens.
+
+### Availability and preflight
+
+`MacosContainerBottleBackend.is_available()` returns true only when:
+
+- `platform.system() == "Darwin"`
+- `container` is discoverable on `PATH`
+
+`prepare()` calls `require_container()`, which produces a concrete
+install pointer and rejects non-macOS hosts.
+
+### Implemented primitives
+
+The backend owns an Apple Container wrapper module instead of reusing
+Docker wrappers. The wrapper maps bot-bottle's backend needs to
+Apple's CLI:
+
+| bot-bottle need | Apple Container command |
+|---|---|
+| Build provider image | `container build -t <ref> [-f Dockerfile] <context>` |
+| Run agent commands | `container exec [--interactive --tty] <id> ...` |
+| Copy files into guest | `container cp <host> <id>:<path>` |
+| Inspect image identity | `container image inspect <ref>` |
+| Cleanup stale containers | `container delete --force <id>` |
+| Cleanup stale networks | `container network delete <name>` |
+| Active enumeration | `container list --quiet` |
+
+The bottle handle mirrors `DockerBottle`: it builds a host argv for
+foreground agent execution, pipes shell snippets through stdin for
+`Bottle.exec`, and exposes `cp_in` for provisioning.
+
+### Launch topology
+
+`launch()` uses Apple Container's two-network topology:
+
+- create a host-only internal network for the bottle;
+- create a normal NAT egress network for the sidecar bundle;
+- start the sidecar bundle attached to the egress network first and the
+  internal network second;
+- discover the sidecar's internal-network IPv4 address from
+  `container inspect`;
+- start the agent attached only to the internal network, with
+  HTTP_PROXY / HTTPS_PROXY / lowercase proxy vars pointing at the
+  sidecar IP and egress port.
+
+This keeps the agent off the outbound network while preserving the
+proxy-env contract that existing agent tooling already honors. The
+integration smoke also removes the proxy env in-guest and confirms
+direct egress fails.
+
+### Deferred git-gate support
+
+Apple Container currently rejects single-file bind mounts, and
+`container cp` into a stopped container is not available. Starting the
+container earlier would allow `container cp` into a running container,
+but it would also mean delivering SSH private key material into a live
+sidecar before the git-gate daemon is ready to own it. Mounting broad
+host SSH directories is not acceptable.
+
+For this PRD, `bottle.git` / git-gate support is explicitly deferred on
+the `macos-container` backend. Bottles with git-gate upstreams fail
+loudly and should use `docker` or `smolmachines` until a narrower key
+delivery design lands.
+
+## Implementation chunks
+
+1. Register `macos-container`, add availability/preflight, bottle
+   handle, utility wrappers, cleanup, active enumeration, unit tests,
+   and this PRD.
+2. Spike Apple Container networking against real macOS 26 hosts:
+   repeated `--network`, internal network egress behavior, published
+   loopback reachability from another container, DNS behavior, and
+   labels/JSON output stability.
+3. Implement launch once the enforcement shape is proven. Reuse the
+   existing sidecar bundle image and daemon subset env contract where
+   possible.
+4. Add real-runtime integration tests guarded by `container` presence
+   and macOS version.
+5. Consider moving smolmachines sidecar/image-building work to
+   VM-contained or Apple Container-backed execution only after the
+   `macos-container` launch path is trustworthy.
+
+## Testing Strategy
+
+- Unit tests cover backend registration through `known_backend_names`.
+- Unit tests cover availability/preflight behavior without requiring
+  macOS.
+- Unit tests cover `MacosContainerBottle` command construction and
+  stdin-based shell execution.
+- Unit tests cover cleanup and active enumeration parsing.
+- Unit tests cover launch argv/env construction, sidecar mount
+  staging, sidecar IP parsing, and git-gate rejection.
+- Integration tests run on macOS hosts with Apple Container installed
+  and verify that egress cannot bypass the sidecar. They also preflight
+  Apple Container BuildKit DNS because image builds must resolve
+  package mirrors before a launch smoke can be meaningful. The backend
+  probes the running builder before image builds and leaves it alone
+  when its current resolver works. If the probe fails, or if the
+  operator explicitly sets `BOT_BOTTLE_MACOS_CONTAINER_DNS`, the backend
+  restarts the Apple Container builder with the configured DNS server.
+  Without an explicit override, that server is discovered from the
+  host's directly reachable IPv4 resolver before falling back to a
+  public resolver.
+
+## References
+
+- [Issue #220 review comment](https://gitea.dideric.is/didericis/bot-bottle/issues/220#issuecomment-1980):
+  smolvm `--port/-p` can expose a guest service to host loopback, and
+  another smolvm guest can reach it through the existing per-bottle
+  loopback alias path.
+- Apple Container command reference: `container run`, `build`, `exec`,
+  port publishing, and network commands.
