Owner

Goal

Stop building and publishing an official Docker/OCI image as a first-class project artifact. The supported OOTB Linux service path is the auto-review binary with embedded OCI isolation; operators may build their own Docker images if desired.

Implements the Docker-image removal portion of ADR-0018.

Scope

Remove ar-gateway-image from flake.nix.
Remove Docker image contract checks.
Remove dev-gateway-container if it only exists to exercise the official image shape.
Remove PR CI steps that build release PR Docker images.
Remove release-candidate image publication.
Remove skopeo usage that exists only for image publication/promotion.
Preserve embedded OCI rootfs/runtime packaging for the direct binary artifact.
Update immediately affected deployment docs/examples so they do not point at an official image.

Acceptance Criteria

The project no longer exposes a Nix package for the official gateway Docker image.
CI no longer builds or uploads release PR Docker image artifacts.
No release workflow publishes git.johnwilger.com/jwilger/auto_review/ar-gateway:*.
The direct binary artifact path remains intact.
Embedded OCI gateway isolation remains intact.

Verification

just ci
nix build .
Confirm workflows contain no Docker image publication path.

Dependencies

Blocked by #217.

## Goal Stop building and publishing an official Docker/OCI image as a first-class project artifact. The supported OOTB Linux service path is the `auto-review` binary with embedded OCI isolation; operators may build their own Docker images if desired.
