Frequently asked questions
What does the Docker MCP server do?
Manage local or remote Docker daemons: containers, images, Compose, Swarm, Buildx, Scout and OCI registries, with read-only hosts for safe monitoring.
Is the Docker MCP server free?
The server is free, but you will likely need an account. The server itself is free, but it connects to a service that needs an account or API key, which may have paid tiers. Check the provider for current pricing.
Does Docker run locally or remotely?
Local. Runs on your machine (stdio). You install it with npx, uvx, Docker or from source.
