Install Docker in Claude Code, Cursor or VS Code

Runs npx -y mcp-docker-server on your machine. Read the scan report first; the gateway never runs local packages.

What the publisher says

From the Docker repository's README, as published. We do not edit it. Read it on GitHub

mcp-server-docker

Control Docker containers, images, and services from your AI coding assistant. List, start, stop, read logs, run commands inside containers, and check resource usage.

npx mcp-docker-server

Compatible with Claude Desktop, Cursor, VS Code Copilot, and any MCP-compatible client. No API keys needed. Connects to your local Docker socket automatically.

Why

If you work with Docker daily, you know the routine: switch to a terminal, type docker ps, scroll through logs, copy container IDs, restart services. It adds up. This MCP server lets your AI assistant handle those tasks for you while you stay focused on code. Ask it to check which containers are running, pull up logs from a failing service, or restart something that got stuck. It talks to Docker's API through the local socket, so there's nothing to configure and no credentials to manage.

Not as far as the registry entry and our scan can tell: no credentials are declared or required.
Is Docker maintained?
The last commit was 64 days ago (2026-08-10). The latest release is v1.0.1.
What can I use instead of Docker?
