# PHALANX Kali Sandbox – Dockerfile.kali
# Provides a Kali Linux container with all pentest tools required by PHALANX,
# including Docker and Docker Compose (for nested container execution if needed).

# --fix-missing tries alternative mirrors if a package is temporarily unavailable.
# The loop breaks on successful installation; if it finishes without break,
# we verify a key package (nmap) to ensure success and fail the build if missing.

# them you must mount the host's docker socket when running this container.
