Docker FAQs

Question 1

How does Docker MCP Server work?

Accepted Answer

It leverages the MCP Mediator framework to automatically generate MCP tools from existing Docker commands, either through annotations or by inferring details from code. This allows users to execute Docker tasks via MCP.

Question 2

What Docker commands are supported?

Accepted Answer

The server supports a wide range of commands, including container management (start, stop, remove), image management (build, push, pull), network management, volume management, and Swarm management.

Question 3

What is MCP Mediator and how does Docker MCP Server integrate with it?

Accepted Answer

MCP Mediator is a core framework for managing Model Context Protocol. Docker MCP Server integrates seamlessly with it to expose Docker commands as MCP Tools.

Question 4

Do I need to annotate my Docker methods?

Accepted Answer

No, annotation is not strictly required. MCP Mediator supports automatic generation for non-annotated methods, inferring details from the method, class, and package names. This automatic generation can be enabled by setting `createForNonAnnotatedMethods` to `true`.

Question 5

What is Docker MCP Server?
