+### Docker Support
+
+The benchmark uses Docker to create isolated environments for running code in different programming languages. There are two ways to use Docker with this benchmark:
+
+#### Option 1: Build a Local Docker Image
+
+You can build a local Docker image that contains all the necessary tools for the benchmark:
+
+```bash
+# Build the Docker image
+./evaluation/benchmarks/polyglot_benchmark/scripts/build_local_docker.sh
+
+# Run the benchmark with the local image
+./evaluation/benchmarks/polyglot_benchmark/scripts/run_infer.sh eval_gpt4_1106_preview HEAD CodeActAgent 1 1
+```
+
+Alternatively, you can set the `BUILD_LOCAL_DOCKER` environment variable:
+
+```bash
+BUILD_LOCAL_DOCKER=true ./evaluation/benchmarks/polyglot_benchmark/scripts/run_infer.sh eval_gpt4_1106_preview HEAD CodeActAgent 1 1
+```
+
+#### Option 2: Use a Pre-built Docker Image
+
+You can specify a custom Docker image to use:
+
+```bash
+POLYGLOT_DOCKER_IMAGE="your-custom-image:tag" ./evaluation/benchmarks/polyglot_benchmark/scripts/run_infer.sh eval_gpt4_1106_preview HEAD CodeActAgent 1 1
 ```
