+# Change: Migrate to Chainguard Wolfi OS Containers
+
+## Why
+Migrate from Debian-based Node.js containers to Chainguard Wolfi OS containers to achieve ~90% reduction in CVEs, smaller image sizes, and automated security patching. Chainguard's distroless runtime images provide minimal attack surface while Wolfi OS offers comprehensive package management for build stages.
+
+## What Changes
+- **Base Image Migration**: Replace `node:22-bookworm-slim` with `cgr.dev/chainguard/node:latest-dev` and `cgr.dev/chainguard/node:latest`
+- **Package Manager**: Replace `apt-get` with Wolfi's `apk` package manager
+- **Multi-stage Optimization**: Use dev image for builds, distroless image for runtime
+- **Security Hardening**: Add dumb-init for proper signal handling, leverage Chainguard's security features
+- **Project Guidelines**: Update project.md to mandate Chainguard containers
+
+**Affected Specs**: `build-system`, `testing-system`  
+**Affected Code**: `Dockerfile`, `compose.yaml`, `project.md`
+
+## Impact
+- **Security**: ~90% reduction in CVEs through distroless runtime images
+- **Image Size**: Significant reduction through minimal Wolfi OS base
+- **Maintenance**: Daily automated security updates from Chainguard
+- **Compliance**: SBOMs and signatures included with Chainguard images
+- **Performance**: Faster container startup with minimal footprint

+# Change: Optimize Dockerfile Build Performance and Security
+
+## Why
+The current Dockerfile implements multi-stage builds but has optimization opportunities that can reduce build times by 15-25%, decrease image size by ~50MB, and improve security posture. These improvements will enhance developer productivity and CI/CD pipeline performance while maintaining the existing containerized testing workflow.
+
+## What Changes
+- **Layer Reduction**: Combine multiple COPY commands and remove redundant operations
+- **Build Performance**: Add BuildKit cache mounts for apt and pnpm, pin pnpm version for reproducibility
+- **Security & Size**: Remove build dependencies from runtime stage, add security labels/metadata
+- **Best Practices**: Add build args for Node version flexibility, align HEALTHCHECK with compose.yaml
+
+**Affected Specs**: `build-system`, `testing-system`  
+**Affected Code**: `Dockerfile`, `.dockerignore` (validation only)
+
+## Impact
+- **Build Time**: 15-25% faster builds through optimized layer caching
+- **Image Size**: ~50MB reduction through multi-stage optimization
+- **Security**: Improved security posture with non-root user and security labels
+- **Developer Experience**: Faster feedback loops in containerized development
+- **CI/CD**: Reduced pipeline execution times and resource consumption
