Research Process

1. Environment Analysis

✅ Identified current Docker container setup
✅ Analyzed hardware (Raspberry Pi, 3.7Gi RAM)
✅ Mapped bind mounts and permissions
✅ Verified tmux/pi-teams integration

2. Option Evaluation

✅ Option 1: One Docker container with tmux/pi-teams
✅ Option 2: pi-container-sandbox (deferred)
✅ Option 3: Separate containers (not recommended)

3. Documentation

✅ Comprehensive comparison table
✅ Architecture diagrams
✅ Implementation checklist
✅ Operational controls
✅ Future evolution path

4. Completion

✅ Answer written to research/answers/q-06-runtime-container-shape.md
✅ Claim board updated to HANDLED/ANSWERED
✅ Research queue updated to ANSWERED
✅ Log updated with completion entry
✅ Team notified

Key Recommendation

Choose: One Docker container with tmux/pi-teams for MVP

Architecture:

Single Docker container → tmux panes → pi-teams agents → bind mounts

Bind Mounts: - /workcell/llm-wiki → Wiki depot - /workcell/runs → Run artifacts - /workcell/config → Configuration - /work/repo → D3-TUI repo

Defer: pi-container-sandbox for future phases

Avoid: Separate containers (unnecessary complexity)
