If you need changes made inside the container to reflect on the host filesystem, you can mount a volume. This allows the container to access and modify files on the host system. Here's an example:

"filesystem": {
"command": "docker",
"args": [
"run",
"-i",
"--rm",
"--volume=/allowed/directory/in/host:/allowed/directory/in/container",

]
}
}
}
```
