v1.6.0
New command: groundwork-doctor
A read-only machine health report. It never installs, deletes, prunes, or changes settings — it tells you what it found and hands you the owner-scoped way to act on it.
The first module covers Docker machine health:
- Daemon reachability (with the right start command for your setup).
- Engine hygiene: warns when container logs don't rotate (
log-drivernotlocal) and when the containerd image store — which local multi-platform builds expect — is off. Work Macs get both from the managed Colima template; on Docker Desktop these are one-time settings the doctor now verifies instead of trusting. - Disk usage (
docker system df) plus a leftovers count: stopped containers, dangling images, dangling volumes — with guidance that routes cleanup to each repo's own clean commands and warns against blanketdocker system prune.
Run groundwork-doctor any time disk feels tight, or after setting up a machine. groundwork-help doctor shows the catalog entry. Planned next module (see ROADMAP): competing-app detection.
After updating
Run chezmoi update, then try groundwork-doctor. If it warns about log-driver, the Platforms page has the exact Docker Desktop engine JSON to paste.
