- Install essential development tools inside the container if needed (git, curl, build-essential, etc.), but only via runtime commands if necessary.
- Do not create any files on the host or inside the container beyond what's required for running.
- Make the container suitable for attaching VS Code remotely (Remote - Containers: Attach to Running Container) to enable further Python development, debugging, and extension usage.
