MCP server for Docker — manage containers, images, volumes, and compose services from your IDE
Runs locally over stdio
This server isn't hosted — your MCP client launches it from a package registry. Use one of the commands below, or drop the config into your client (e.g. Claude Desktop).
Run
npx -y mcp-docker-server
MCP client config
{
"mcpServers": {
"mcp-server-docker": {
"command": "npx",
"args": [
"-y",
"mcp-docker-server"
]
}
}
