+### Docker Authentication Required
+
+To complete the Docker push manually:
+
+```bash
+# Login to GitHub Container Registry
+echo $GITHUB_TOKEN | docker login ghcr.io -u danconwaydev --password-stdin
+
+# Push images
+docker push ghcr.io/danconwaydev/ngit-relay:v0.0.4
+docker push ghcr.io/danconwaydev/ngit-relay:latest
+```
+
+Alternatively, the GitHub Action workflow may handle this automatically on push to master.
