Layerquarry

Import container image history offline, visualize layer size and estimated waste, improve cache order, and document a smaller runtime plan.

Focused field tools

Layer Semantics

Understand that deleting a file later does not remove bytes from an earlier layer.

Build Context

Exclude source history, credentials, caches, outputs, and unrelated files.

Package Managers

Combine install and cleanup safely within the creating layer.

Multi Stage

Copy only required runtime artifacts from a controlled builder.

Cache Order

Place stable dependencies before frequently changing source inputs.

Base Image

Choose maintained, compatible, minimal foundations with known provenance.

Layerquarry analyzes imported history metadata and entered assumptions; it does not open arbitrary layer files, scan vulnerabilities, connect to a registry, or prove runtime compatibility. Validate the rebuilt image, packages, architecture, permissions, signatures, and application behavior in controlled CI.
