Robert Brennanandopenhands 157f394c62 docs: document dockerized dev setup as default (#232)
* docs: document dockerized dev setup as default

Add dev:docker npm script and update README to recommend the dockerized
agent-server workflow as the default, moving the direct-execution path to
an 'advanced' section with the existing filesystem-access warning.

Co-authored-by: openhands <openhands@all-hands.dev>

* fix docker script

* more docker fixes

/**
* Dockerized Development Stack
*
* Same as `dev-with-automation.mjs` (Vite + ingress + automation backend),
* but runs the agent-server inside a Docker container instead of via `uvx`.
*
* The agent-server image listens on port 8000 inside the container; we map
* it to the host's `agentServerPort` (default 18000) so the ingress proxy
* and the secret-seeding step can reach it via http://localhost:18000.
*
* Required environment variables:
* - PROJECT_PATH: Absolute host path to your projects. Mounted into the
* container at /workspace/projects so the agent can read/edit your code.
*
* Optional environment variables:
* - OH_AGENT_SERVER_GIT_REF: Git ref (branch/tag/SHA) of the agent-server
* to use. Translates to the docker tag `${ref}-python`, e.g.
* `main` -> `ghcr.io/openhands/agent-server:main-python`.
*
* Optional credential mounts (only mounted when the host path exists):
* - ~/.openhands -> /home/openhands/.openhands (persistence)
* - ~/.claude -> /home/openhands/.claude (Claude credentials)
* - ~/.codex -> /home/openhands/.codex (Codex credentials)
* - ~/.ssh -> /home/openhands/.ssh (git/ssh access)
*
* Usage:
* PROJECT_PATH=/path/to/your/projects npm run dev:docker
* OH_AGENT_SERVER_GIT_REF=main PROJECT_PATH=... npm run dev:docker
