Agent Build Reproducibility Checklist
Ensuring every agent environment is bit-for-bit identical across development and production.
Steps
- Use multi-stage Docker builds to separate build-tools from the final runtime.
- Pin base images to specific SHA256 digests, not just version tags.
- Enforce `--no-cache-dir` on package managers (pip/npm) to ensure fresh pulls.
- Normalize file timestamps during the build to maintain deterministic image hashes.
- Verify build artifacts against a pre-defined 'Clean Room' environment.
