1. System Lifecycle Management

Unlike standard Docker Desktop, the container system services are explicit.

• Startup: Always verify container system status before running operations. If stopped, run container system start.
• Kernel: On first run, system start may prompt to install a Linux kernel. The agent should be aware of this initialization step.
• Cleanup: To save resources when not in use, run container system stop.
