Research direction

The issue names no file, test, or entry point to change; begin by reviewing the repository's existing Docker image definitions and how base images are selected. Before implementation, clarify whether official Windows Server images are required, which microsoft/windowsservercore variant is supported, and what build and runtime checks would define completion.

Written by the indexing model from the issue text.
