Docker container management and Dockerfile analysis

Install

Add this to your client's MCP configuration (Claude Desktop: claude_desktop_config.json; Cursor: .cursor/mcp.json; VS Code and others use the same "mcpServers" shape).

NPM package @rog0x/mcp-docker-tools
Claude Code
claude mcp add docker -- npx -y @rog0x/mcp-docker-tools@1.0.1
JSON configuration (Claude Desktop, Cursor, VS Code)
{
    "mcpServers": {
        "docker": {
            "command": "npx",
            "args": [
                "-y",
                "@rog0x/mcp-docker-tools@1.0.1"
            ]
        }

mcp-docker-tools

Docker management tools for AI agents, built on the Model Context Protocol.

Provides five tools for inspecting containers, images, Dockerfiles, and Compose configurations — all accessible to LLMs through MCP.

Tools

ToolDescription
docker_container_listList running or all containers with status, ports, image, created time, and resource usage (CPU, memory, network/block I/O)
docker_image_listList Docker images with size, tags, created date, and layer count
docker_dockerfile_analyzeAnalyze a Dockerfile for best practices: multi-stage builds, non-root user, layer caching, image size, security
docker_compose_analyzeAnalyze docker-compose.yml: services, ports, volumes, networks, health checks, dependencies, and improvement suggestions
docker_container_logsGet container logs with tail, keyword filter, time range, and timestamp support

Prerequisites

  • Node.js >= 18
  • Docker CLI installed and accessible in PATH
  • Docker daemon running (for container/image tools)

Installation

git clone <repo-url>
cd mcp-docker-tools
npm install
npm run build

Usage with Claude Desktop

Add to your Claude Desktop configuration (claude_desktop_config.json):

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "docker-tools": {
      "command": "node",
      "args": ["D:/products/mcp-servers/mcp-docker-tools/dist/index.js"]
    }
  }
}

Usage with Claude Code

claude mcp add docker-tools node D:/products/mcp-servers/mcp-docker-tools/dist/index.js

Or add to .claude/settings.json:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "docker-tools": {
      "command": "node",
      "args": ["D:/products/mcp-servers/mcp-docker-tools/dist/index.js"]
    }
  }
}

Tool Examples
