container
Let an agent explain containers and their kinds, support choosing containers for storage and transport, describe packaging and logistics standards, and separate the computing sense.
Research draft, second pass
A second pass drafted this model: the structure a model of this thing needs, and what is known about it in the world. The line under this one says how the second half was obtained - researched against sources, or recalled without web access, in which case nothing here was read anywhere and every claim is a lead to verify. Unreviewed either way.

Purpose and description
Let an agent explain containers and their kinds, support choosing containers for storage and transport, describe packaging and logistics standards, and separate the computing sense.
An object that can hold, store, transport or separate contents, from everyday boxes, jars, bottles, bags and cans to industrial drums, tanks and intermodal shipping containers, and in computing a term for packaged software environments; containers are designed for their contents in material, shape, closure and labelling, are standardised in packaging and logistics, and are regulated for safety, food contact and waste.
What it is for: Objects that hold contents.
It can be explain kinds; support choosing containers; describe standards; separate other senses.
Distinguishing features
Holds contents
Material and closure
Standardised sizes
Regulated for contents
What it looks like
Boxes, jars, bottles, cans, drums, tanks and shipping containers.
How it is recognised
Holds or separates contents
Domestic to industrial
A software container is a computing sense; a vessel is often a large container
