# Docker

> Use this tool when you need to interact with Docker containers and images through a standardized interface, solving problems such as automating container management and image retrieval in AI assistant workflows. It takes Docker CLI commands as input and outputs container and image information, allowing for listing, running, stopping, and removing containers, as well as pulling images from registries. Ideal for use cases requiring straightforward Docker functionality, such as development and testing environments.

## Description

The Docker MCP Server enables AI assistants like Claude to interact with Docker through a standardized interface. Built with TypeScript using the Model Context Protocol SDK, it provides tools for essential Docker operations including listing containers and images, running and stopping containers, removing containers, and pulling images from registries. The server communicates via stdin/stdout following the MCP protocol, and includes an installation script that automatically configures Claude Desktop and VSCode environments. While it supports standard Docker CLI commands, it currently does not handle Docker Compose operations, making it ideal for users who need straightforward Docker functionality in their AI assistant workflows.
