Report #100081

[bug\_fix] failed to solve: failed to solve with frontend dockerfile.v0: failed to create LLB definition: Dockerfile parse error line 5: Unknown instruction: ARGX

Fix the typo in the Dockerfile instruction. Only recognized instructions are valid at the start of a line. Common typos include \`ARGX\` instead of \`ARG\`, \`EVN\` instead of \`ENV\`, or lowercase instructions. Run \`docker build --progress=plain\` to see the exact line number.

Journey Context:
You edit a Dockerfile quickly and write \`argx NODE\_VERSION=20\` instead of \`ARG\`. BuildKit fails with 'Unknown instruction' and points to line 5. You suspect a syntax version issue and add \`\# syntax=docker/dockerfile:1\`, but the real problem is the typo. Dockerfile instructions must be uppercase and spelled exactly as defined. The parser stops at the first invalid instruction, so the line number is usually accurate.
