DevContainer Setup Skill

When to Use

User asks to set up a DevContainer or development environment
User mentions AI-ready development setup
Project needs containerized development with multiple language runtimes

Instructions

Step 1: Create directory structure

mkdir -p .devcontainer/snowflake-ai-tools

Step 2: Copy templates

Copy these files from the skill templates folder:

Source Destination

templates/devcontainer.json

.devcontainer/devcontainer.json

templates/snowflake-ai-tools/devcontainer-feature.json

.devcontainer/snowflake-ai-tools/devcontainer-feature.json

templates/snowflake-ai-tools/install.sh

.devcontainer/snowflake-ai-tools/install.sh

If no

requirements.txt

exists in project root, also copy:

Source	Destination
`templates/requirements.txt`	`requirements.txt`

Step 3: Make scripts executable

chmod +x .devcontainer/snowflake-ai-tools/install.sh

Step 4: Remind user to create host directories

Run this on their host machine before opening the devcontainer:

mkdir -p ~/.m2 ~/.npm ~/.cache/uv ~/.cargo ~/.snowflake ~/.claude ~/.cursor

Step 5: Remind user about config files

These should exist on the host:

```
~/.snowflake/connections.toml
```
- Snowflake CLI config
```
~/.claude/
```
- Claude Code config

Template Locations

All templates are in this skill's

templates/

folder:

Troubleshooting

Issue	Solution
NPM EACCES errors	`sudo chown -R $(whoami) "$HOME/.npm"`
UID mismatch on Linux	Verify `updateRemoteUserUID: true` in devcontainer.json
Cache permission issues	Run `snowflake-ai-tools-setup` to re-fix permissions
Mount directory not found	Run `mkdir -p ~/.m2 ~/.npm ~/.cache/uv ~/.cargo ~/.snowflake ~/.claude ~/.cursor` on host
Tools not found	Check Docker build logs for install errors
Different user than vscode	Update mount targets and containerEnv paths in devcontainer.json
