Generation Instructions

1. Identify container roles: web (PHP-FPM), worker (queue), scheduler (cron)
2. Detect framework: Symfony or Laravel for correct CLI commands
3. List dependencies: database, cache, message broker
4. Generate entrypoint scripts with signal handling and readiness checks
5. Add Dockerfile COPY/RUN for entrypoint installation

See references/entrypoint-patterns.md for Symfony and Laravel specifics.
