claude-bottle

What this is

claude-bottle spins up an isolated container for running Claude Code with a curated set of skills and env vars. The point is to run Claude with broad permissions inside a sandbox, so a misbehaving agent cannot reach the host. Bash scripts orchestrate the container lifecycle and the copying of skills and env vars into it.

Goals

Minimize risk of running claude with full permissions
Allow me to easily spin up agent tasks in parallel
Create isolated, well defined, easily updated, shareable agents

Non-goals

Communicating between agents directly
Self hosted VMs (v1 uses local Docker containers, not VMs)
Advanced agent auditing (lean on git history for auditing)

Repository layout

README.md — short public-facing description.
CLAUDE.md — this file, orientation for future Claude sessions.
.gitignore — OS junk.
claude-bottle.json — manifest of named agents (env / skills / prompt per agent), consumed by cli.sh. See "Manifest" under "Intended design".
docs/INDEX.md — pointer to the journal and research notes.
docs/JOURNAL.md — append-only log of decisions and state changes.
docs/prds/ — product requirement docs.
docs/research/ — research notes (empty for now, kept tracked via .gitkeep).
.claude/skills/init-entry/ — project-local Claude Code skill providing /init-entry for adding journal entries. Snapshotted from ~/.claude/skills/init-entry/ at scaffold time; refresh deliberately if it drifts.

Conventions

Text-driven content. docs/JOURNAL.md is an append-only stream of thought, newest first. Entries are timestamps followed by freeform prose — no templates, no required sections. Add entries with /init-entry.
Product requirement docs live in docs/prds/.
Research notes live in docs/research/.
Low dependencies by default. The project is bash-first; ask before adding new tools, runtimes, or package managers.
Commit messages follow Conventional Commits: <type>[(scope)][!]: <description>, where <type> is one of feat, fix, docs, style, refactor, perf, test, build, ci, chore, revert. A commit-msg hook in .githooks/ enforces this. Activate it once per clone with git config core.hooksPath .githooks.

When you're unsure

Ask. Default to drafting in chat over editing files when the request is ambiguous.
