Image helpers

These helpers return standard modal.Image objects. Use Modal’s Images guide for general image operations. Most applications customize only base_image() and leave the generated controller image unchanged.

Standard workspace contents

base_image() includes:
  • Git, curl, CA certificates, tar, and the Devin CLI.
  • /root/workspace as the managed working directory.
  • FFmpeg by default for screen recording.
  • Chromium by default for browser and computer-use features.
Disable install_ffmpeg or install_chrome when the corresponding feature is unneeded.
