For example, run `az login` then `az account set --subscription=\u003cid\u003e`\nto import credentials on the system and user running coderd. For other ways to\nauthenticate, [consult the Terraform docs](https://registry.terraform.io/providers/hashicorp/azurerm/latest/docs#authenticating-to-azure).\n\n## Architecture\n\nThis template provisions the following resources:\n\n- Azure VM (ephemeral, deleted on stop)\n- Managed disk (persistent, mounted to `/home/coder`)\n- Resource group, virtual network, subnet, and network interface (persistent, required by the managed disk and VM)\n\n### What happens on stop\n\nWhen a workspace is **stopped**, only the VM is destroyed. The managed disk, resource group, virtual network, subnet, and network interface all persist. This is by design — the managed disk retains your `/home/coder` data across workspace restarts, and the other resources remain because the disk depends on them.\n\nThis means you will see these Azure resources in your subscription even when a workspace is stopped. This is expected behavior.\n\n### What happens on delete\n\nWhen a workspace is **deleted**, all resources are destroyed, including the resource group, networking resources, and managed disk.\n\n### Workspace restarts\n\nSince the VM is ephemeral, any tools or files outside of the home directory are not persisted across restarts. To pre-bake tools into the workspace (e.g. `python3`), modify the VM image, or use a [startup script](https://registry.terraform.io/providers/coder/coder/latest/docs/resources/script). Alternatively, individual developers can [personalize](https://coder.com/docs/dotfiles) their workspaces with dotfiles.\n\n\u003e [!NOTE]\n\u003e This template is designed to be a starting point! Edit the Terraform to extend the template to support your use case.\n\n### Persistent VM\n\n\u003e [!IMPORTANT] \n\u003e This approach requires the [`az` CLI](https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/cli/azure/install-azure-cli#install) to be present in the PATH of your Coder Provisioner.\n\u003e You will have to do this installation manually as it is not included in our official images.\n\nIt is possible to make the VM persistent (instead of ephemeral) by removing the `count` attribute in the `azurerm_linux_virtual_machine` resource block as well as adding the following snippet:\n\n```hcl\n# Stop the VM\nresource \"null_resource\" \"stop_vm\" {\n count = data.coder_workspace.me.transition == \"stop\" ? 1 : 0\n depends_on = [azurerm_linux_virtual_machine.main]\n provisioner \"local-exec\" {\n # Use deallocate so the VM is not charged\n command = \"az vm deallocate --ids ${azurerm_linux_virtual_machine.main.id}\"\n }\n}\n\n# Start the VM\nresource \"null_resource\" \"start\" {\n count = data.coder_workspace.me.transition == \"start\" ? 1 : 0\n depends_on = [azurerm_linux_virtual_machine.main]\n provisioner \"local-exec\" {\n command = \"az vm start --ids ${azurerm_linux_virtual_machine.main.id}\"\n }\n}\n```\n"

"markdown": "\n# Incus System Container with Docker\n\nDevelop in an Incus System Container and run nested Docker containers using Incus.\n\n## Architecture\n\nThis template uses the [Incus guest API](https://linuxcontainers.org/incus/docs/main/dev-incus/) (`/dev/incus/sock`) to deliver the Coder agent token and URL into the container without any host filesystem coupling. This means:\n\n- **The provisioner does not need to run on the Incus host.** There are no bind mounts or local file writes. All configuration is passed via Incus `user.*` config keys and read from inside the container at runtime.\n- **The agent binary is downloaded automatically.** The standard Coder init script fetches the correct binary from the Coder server on every boot, keeping it in sync with the server version.\n- **The agent token is refreshed on every start.** Terraform updates the `user.coder_agent_token` config key each workspace start. A watcher service inside the container listens for config changes via the guest API events endpoint and restarts the agent when a new token arrives.\n\n### Boot sequence\n\n1. **First boot (cloud-init):** Creates the workspace user, writes the bootstrap scripts and systemd units, installs `curl` and `git`, and enables the services. Cloud-init only runs once.\n2. **Every boot (systemd):**\n - `coder-agent-config.service` (oneshot) reads `CODER_AGENT_TOKEN` and `CODER_AGENT_URL` from the Incus guest API and writes them to `/opt/coder/init.env`.\n - `coder-agent.service` loads the env file and runs the Coder init script, which downloads the agent binary and starts it.\n - `coder-agent-watcher.service` streams config change events from the guest API. If the Incus provider updates the token *after* the container has already booted (a known provider ordering issue), the watcher detects the change, re-fetches the config, and restarts the agent.\n\n### Packages\n\nEssential packages (`curl`, `git`) are installed via cloud-init on first boot, before the agent starts. Additional packages (e.g. `docker.io`) are installed via a non-blocking [`coder_script`](https://registry.terraform.io/providers/coder/coder/latest/docs/resources/script) that runs on each workspace start. It does not block login; users can connect to the workspace immediately while packages install in the background. On subsequent starts, it detects packages are already installed and skips the installation.\n\n## Prerequisites\n\n1. Install [Incus](https://linuxcontainers.org/incus/) on a machine reachable by the Coder provisioner.\n2. Allow Coder to access the Incus socket.\n\n - If you're running Coder as a system service, run `sudo usermod -aG incus-admin coder` and restart the Coder service.\n - If you're running Coder as a Docker Compose service, get the group ID of the `incus-admin` group by running `getent group incus-admin` and add the following to your `compose.yaml` file:\n\n ```yaml\n services:\n coder:\n volumes:\n - /var/lib/incus/unix.socket:/var/lib/incus/unix.socket\n group_add:\n - 996 # Replace with the group ID of the `incus-admin` group\n ```\n\n3. Create a storage pool named `coder` by running `incus storage create coder btrfs` (or use another [supported driver](https://linuxcontainers.org/incus/docs/main/reference/storage_drivers/)).\n\n## Usage\n\n\u003e **Note:** This template requires a container image with cloud-init installed, such as `images:debian/13/cloud` or `images:ubuntu/24.04/cloud`. Images are pulled automatically from the [Linux Containers image server](https://images.linuxcontainers.org/).\n\n1. Run `coder templates push --directory .` from this directory.\n2. Create a workspace from the template in the Coder UI.\n\n## Parameters\n\n| Parameter | Description | Default |\n|--------------------|--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|--------------------------|\n| **Image** | Container image with cloud-init. Options: Debian 13, Debian 12, Ubuntu 24.04, Ubuntu 22.04 | `images:debian/13/cloud` |\n| **CPU** | Number of CPUs (1-8) | `1` |\n| **Memory** | Memory in GB (1-16) | `2` |\n| **Storage pool** | Incus storage pool name | `coder` |\n| **Git repository** | Clone a git repo inside the workspace | *(empty)* |\n\n## Extending this template\n\nSee the [lxc/incus](https://registry.terraform.io/providers/lxc/incus/latest/docs) Terraform provider documentation to add the following features to your Coder template:\n\n- Remote Incus hosts (HTTPS)\n- Additional volume mounts\n- Custom networks\n- GPU passthrough\n- More\n\nWe also welcome contributions!\n"

Try prompts such as:\n\n- \"Make the background color blue\"\n- \"Add a dark mode\"\n- \"Rewrite the entire backend in Go\"\n\n## Included in this template\n\nThis template is designed to be an example and a reference for building other templates with Coder Tasks. You can always run Coder Tasks on different infrastructure (e.g. as on Kubernetes, VMs) and with your own GitHub repositories, MCP servers, images, etc.\n\nAdditionally, this template uses our [Claude Code](https://registry.coder.com/modules/coder/claude-code) module, but [other agents](https://registry.coder.com/modules?search=tag%3Aagent) or even [custom agents](https://coder.com/docs/ai-coder/custom-agents) can be used in its place.\n\nThis template uses a [Workspace Preset](https://coder.com/docs/admin/templates/extending-templates/parameters#workspace-presets) that pre-defines:\n\n- Universal Container Image (e.g. contains Node.js, Java, Python, Ruby, etc)\n- MCP servers (desktop-commander for long-running logs, playwright for previewing changes)\n- System prompt and [repository](https://github.com/coder-contrib/realworld-django-rest-framework-angular) for the AI agent\n- Startup script to initialize the repository and start the development server\n\n## Add this template to your Coder deployment\n\nYou can also add this template to your Coder deployment and begin tinkering right away!\n\n### Prerequisites\n\n- Coder installed (see [our docs](https://coder.com/docs/install)), ideally a Linux VM with Docker\n- Anthropic API Key (or access to Anthropic models via Bedrock or Vertex, see [Claude Code docs](https://docs.anthropic.com/en/docs/claude-code/third-party-integrations))\n- Access to a Docker socket\n - If on the local VM, ensure the `coder` user is added to the Docker group (docs)\n\n ```sh\n # Add coder user to Docker group\n sudo adduser coder docker\n \n # Restart Coder server\n sudo systemctl restart coder\n \n # Test Docker\n sudo -u coder docker ps\n ```\n\n - If on a remote VM, see the [Docker Terraform provider documentation](https://registry.terraform.io/providers/kreuzwerker/docker/latest/docs#remote-hosts) to configure a remote host\n\nTo import this template into Coder, first create a template from \"Scratch\" in the template editor.\n\nVisit this URL for your Coder deployment:\n\n```sh\nhttps://coder.example.com/templates/new?exampleId=scratch\n```\n\nAfter creating the template, paste the contents from [main.tf](https://github.com/coder/registry/blob/main/registry/coder-labs/templates/tasks-docker/main.tf) into the template editor and save.\n\nAlternatively, you can use the Coder CLI to [push the template](https://coder.com/docs/reference/cli/templates_push)\n\n```sh\n# Download the CLI\ncurl -L https://coder.com/install.sh | sh\n\n# Log in to your deployment\ncoder login https://coder.example.com\n\n# Clone the registry\ngit clone https://github.com/coder/registry\ncd registry\n\n# Navigate to this template\ncd registry/coder-labs/templates/tasks-docker\n\n# Push the template\ncoder templates push\n```\n"
