 ### Step 6: Verify Runtime Compatibility (Remote and Local)
 
 #### Remote Mode
 
-Before submitting remote jobs, verify the container has the exact target version
-installed. First, read the Dockerfile to see what's actually installed:
-```bash
-ATX_INFRA_DIR="$HOME/.aws/atx/custom/remote-infra"
-cat "$ATX_INFRA_DIR/container/Dockerfile" 2>/dev/null
-```
+Before submitting remote jobs, determine whether the pre-built image covers the
+target runtime or if a custom Docker build is needed.
+
+**Pre-built image includes:**
+- **Java**: 8, 11, 17, 21, 25 (Amazon Corretto) with Maven and Gradle 9.4
+- **Python**: 3.8, 3.9, 3.10, 3.11, 3.12, 3.13, 3.14 (dnf + pyenv)
+- **Node.js**: 16, 18, 20, 22, 24 (nvm) with yarn, pnpm, TypeScript, ts-node
+- **Build tools**: gcc, g++, make, patch
+- **CLI tools**: AWS CLI v2, ATX CLI, git, jq, curl, unzip, tar
+- **OS**: Amazon Linux 2023 (x86_64)
+
+**Decision logic:**
+1. Based on the transformation requirements (source runtime, target runtime,
+   build tools, and any other dependencies), determine whether everything
+   needed is available in the pre-built image listed above
+2. If **yes** → use the pre-built image path (no Docker required). Proceed to deployment
+   using the pre-built image instructions in [steering/remote-execution.md](steering/remote-execution.md).
+3. If **no** → use the custom image path (Docker required). Inform the user:
 
-If the directory doesn't exist yet, use the default container contents as reference:
-- Java: 8, 11, 17, 21, 25 (Amazon Corretto)
-- Python: 3.8, 3.9, 3.10, 3.11, 3.12, 3.13, 3.14

+> transformation remotely, I'll need to build a custom container image. This
+> requires Docker installed and running on your machine. It's a one-time change
+> — about 5-10 minutes. Want me to proceed?
 
-Check whether the target version appears in the Dockerfile (or the fallback list
-above). If the transformation targets a version that is NOT present (e.g., Java 23,
-Python 3.15, Node.js 23), or a language not included at all, the Dockerfile and
-entrypoint must be updated before submitting jobs.
+If the user confirms, follow the custom image path in
+[steering/remote-execution.md](steering/remote-execution.md): clear `prebuiltImageUri`,
+customize the Dockerfile, and deploy.
 
-If the target version is missing, inform the user:
+If the user declines, suggest local mode as an alternative (if the tools are
+available on their machine).
 
-> The remote container doesn't include [language/tool version]. To run this
