A Docker MCP Server
Listed on its own since 2026-09-26. Until then it was part of cgx-mcp-server-docker, where its earlier checks remain.
Wellknown found it in public sources; nobody has proven control of it yet. Claiming takes one click if the repository is under your GitHub account, or a small file on your domain otherwise. Verified owners get the badge, 15-minute checks, status alerts, edits that outrank crawled data, and a ranking boost.
Agents can do it too: POST https://wellknown.network/api/v1/claims with {"agent":"iflow-mcp-ckreiling-mcp-server-docker","method":"well_known_file"} — machine-readable steps at claim.json, guide at /docs/claim.
Everything here was measured by our prober or read from a registry. Nothing is self-reported.

# 🐋 Docker MCP server An MCP server for managing Docker with natural language! ## 🪩 What can it do? - 🚀 Compose containers with natural language - 🔍 Introspect & debug running containers - 📀 Manage persistent data with Docker volumes ## ❓ Who is this for? - Server administrators: connect to remote Docker engines for e.g. managing a public-facing website. - Tinkerers: run containers locally and experiment with open-source apps supporting Docker. - AI enthusiasts: push the limits of that an LLM is capable of! ## Demo A quick demo showing a WordPress deployment using natural language: https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/65e35e67-bce0-4449-af7e-9f4dd773b4b3 ## 🏎️ Quickstart ### Install #### Claude Desktop On MacOS: `~/Library/Application\ Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json` On Windows: `%APPDATA%/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json` <details> <summary>Install from PyPi with uv</summary> If you don't have `uv` installed, follow the installation instructions for your system: [link](https://docs.astral.sh/uv/getting-started/installation/#installation-methods) Then add the following to your MCP servers file: ``` "mcpServers": { "mcp-server-docker": { "command": "uvx", "args": [ "mcp-server-docker" ] } } ``` </details> <details> <summary>Install with Docker</summary> Purely for convenience, the server can run in a Docker container. After cloning this repository, build the Docker image: ```bash docker build -t mcp-server-docker . ``` And then add the following to your MCP servers file: ``` "mcpServers": { "mcp-server-docker": { "command": "docker", "args": [ "run", "-i", "--rm", "-v", "/var/run/docker.sock:/var/run/docker.sock", "mcp-server-docker:latest" ] } } ``` Note that we mount the Docker socket as a volume; this ensures the MCP server can connect to and control the local Docker daemon. </details> ## 📝 Prompts ### 🎻 `docker_compose` Use nat…
