### 🔧 **PHASE 3: IMPLEMENTATION** 📋 PLANNED
- [ ] **Core Integration Module**
- [ ] `debos_integration.go`: Main integration logic
- [ ] `manifest_generator.go`: Generate debos YAML from container info
- [ ] `container_processor.go`: Extract and prepare container content
- [ ] `image_builder.go`: Orchestrate debos actions
- [ ] **debos Action Wrappers**
- [ ] `image_partition_wrapper.go`: Disk image creation
- [ ] `filesystem_wrapper.go`: Partition and filesystem setup
- [ ] `bootloader_wrapper.go`: GRUB and boot configuration
- [ ] `ostree_wrapper.go`: OSTree integration
- [ ] **CLI Integration**
- [ ] Update main.go to integrate new backend
- [ ] Add debos-specific configuration flags
- [ ] Maintain existing CLI compatibility
- [ ] Add proper validation and error handling
## COMPLETED TASKS ✅
### Strategic Pivot & Analysis
- [x] **COMPLEXITY REALITY CHECK**: Attempted osbuild integration - RESULT: Too complex
- [x] **REVISED APPROACH**: Shifted from osbuild fork to debos backend integration
- [x] **debos CHOICE**: Selected debos over vmdb2 for Debian-native image building
- [x] **CODE ANALYSIS**: Analyzed bootc-image-builder + osbuild relationship
- [x] **debos ANALYSIS**: Identified capabilities (image creation) and limitations (container conversion)
- [x] **INTEGRATION STRATEGY**: Determined hybrid approach using debos for image creation + custom logic for container conversion
### Previous debos Backend (Simplified Approach)
