AI-powered Docker configuration generator with self-healing builds

wunderunner

AI-Powered Docker Configuration Generator

Analyze your project, generate Dockerfiles & docker-compose.yaml, and learn from build errors with AI.

---

wunderunner (wxr) is a CLI tool that uses AI agents to analyze your codebase and generate production-ready Docker configurations. Point it at any project and it figures out the rest: scanning your dependencies, generating optimized Dockerfiles, and building containers. Self-healing by design. When builds fail, wunderunner doesn't just report errors. It analyzes logs, identifies the root cause, fixes the configuration, and tries again. This iterative loop continues until your container runs successfully or the issue requires human intervention. Built with Pydantic AI for structured agent workflows. Inspired by Repo2Run and Railpack.

Quick Start

# Set your API key
export ANTHROPIC_API_KEY=sk-ant-...

# Run on any project
uvx wunderunner /path/to/your/project

That's it. wunderunner analyzes your project and generates Docker configs.

How It Works

    Analyze[🔍 Analyze Project] --> secrets{Secrets?}
    secrets -->|yes| CollectSecrets[🔐 Collect Secrets]
    secrets -->|no| Dockerfile
    CollectSecrets --> Dockerfile

    Dockerfile[📄 Generate Dockerfile] --> Validate[✅ Validate]

    FixProject -->|can't fix| RetryOrHint

    RetryOrHint{Retry?} -->|attempts left| Dockerfile
    RetryOrHint -->|exhausted| HumanHint[💬 Ask Human]
    HumanHint --> Dockerfile

The loop continues until success. Each failure feeds back as a learning, informing the next generation attempt with specific context about what went wrong and how to fix it.

Features

Feature	Description
Project Analysis	Reads package.json, requirements.txt, Cargo.toml, go.mod, and more
Smart Defaults	Chooses appropriate base images, build stages, and runtime configs
Self-Healing Builds	Automatically diagnoses failures, fixes configs, and retries
Iterative Learning	Each error informs the next attempt until the build succeeds

Key Concepts

Human in the Loop

When automatic retries are exhausted, wunderunner asks for help instead of giving up. You provide a hint, maybe the project needs a specific system dependency, or uses an unconventional setup. Your hint becomes part of the context for the next attempt.

❌ Build failed after 3 attempts
💬 What should I know about this project?
> This uses puppeteer and needs chromium installed

✓ Got it. Retrying with that context...

Learnings & Context

Every failure teaches the system something. Learnings accumulate across retry cycles:

• Phase: Where it failed (build, start, healthcheck)
• Error type: What kind of failure occurred
• Error message: The actual error output
• Context: Additional info (previous fixes tried, human hints)

The Dockerfile generator receives all learnings, allowing it to avoid repeating mistakes and build on what worked.

Caching

Analysis results are cached in .wunderunner/ to avoid re-scanning unchanged projects:

wxr /path/to/project           # Uses cache if available
wxr /path/to/project --rebuild # Ignores cache, fresh analysis

Cached artifacts:

• Project structure analysis
• Detected runtime and framework
• Environment variables and secrets
• Generated Dockerfile and docker-compose.yaml

Runtime Healing

Failures during build, start, or healthcheck trigger the FixProject agent. This agent can:

• Modify project files (add missing configs, fix entry points)
• Update package dependencies
• Add required system packages to Dockerfile
• Fix environment variable issues

If FixProject succeeds, it resets the retry counter, giving the workflow fresh attempts with the fixed configuration.
