Overview

What is Docker MCP Server?

The Docker MCP Server is a Model Context Protocol (MCP) server that integrates with Docker Desktop on Windows, enabling developers and tools to automate and interact with Docker directly through MCP.

How to use Docker MCP Server?

First, install Docker Desktop for Windows and enable the option "Expose daemon on tcp://localhost:2375 without TLS" in Settings > General. Then configure your MCP client (e.g., Claude Desktop) with the provided JSON snippet, which runs the server as a Docker container using the command docker run -i --rm freezeolo/docker-mcp-server.
