What is Compose Check?

A structural validator for Docker Compose: it checks that services exist, each has image or build, and that sections like volumes/ports are well-formed.

How it works

The YAML is parsed and inspected against compose conventions: services must be a mapping, each service needs image or build, and ports should be a list.
