initializeCommand not executed in envbuilder

I have the below configuration on the devcontainer.json file and I want to run some scripts before dockerbuild starts but the "initializeCommand" is not executed when the container is started.
{
    "name": "poc",
    "initializeCommand": "bash .devcontainer/update.sh",
    "build": {
        "dockerfile": "Dockerfile",
    },
    "service": "app",
    
    

    "remoteUser": "node",
    "features": {
        "ghcr.io/devcontainers/features/git:1": {
            "version": "os-provided"
        }
    }
}

There are not logs for this as well i can only see logs starting from building image
envbuilder - Build development environments from repositories in a container

#1: :package: Cloning https://github.com/****/**** to /workspaces/poc

#1: :package: The repository already exists! [4.421296ms]
#2: Deleting filesystem...
#2: :construction_site: Building image...

can anyone help me with the why this config not working?
