Documented steps

  1. Add `logging: {driver: "none"}` to the service in compose.yaml to discard the container's stdout/stderr entirely.
  2. Run `docker compose up -d`; `docker logs <container>` returns nothing for that service.
  3. Use for high-noise sidecars or services whose output is handled externally by an app logger.
