Podman avoids the CAP_SYS_ADMIN requirement that makes rootless Docker impossible here: with no subordinate UID range configured it falls back to a single-UID self-mapping, which an unprivileged process may write itself, so newuidmap is never invoked. The image build therefore strips /etc/subuid and /etc/subgid entries rather than adding them. The agent-facing surface is unchanged — docker and docker compose talk to podman's Docker-compatible API socket. Two device nodes need relaxing as root inside the bottle (0666 on /dev/fuse and /dev/net/tun); both already exist and neither needs a capability the bottle lacks, unlike CAP_SYS_ADMIN. Verified live on macOS 26 / Apple Container 1.0.0: service starts with zero added capabilities, compose pulls and serves from the workspace on a published port, and a nested container cannot reach the network outside the egress path. Known limitation, not yet addressed: the agent base image is Debian bookworm, whose podman 4.3.1 swallows container exit codes through the compat API (docker run returns 0 regardless). podman 5.4.2 on trixie fixes it; the base bump is a separate PR. The acceptance test asserts on an in-band marker rather than an exit code so it cannot false-pass in the meantime. Nested containers give no isolation from the agent itself — root inside one is the agent user outside it. They are a build/test convenience; the bottle remains the security boundary.
