Use this MCP server to inspect Docker containers, images, and basic daemon info.

What it can do

• list_containers - Lists containers on the current Docker daemon, with status, image, ports, networks, and mount count.
• inspect_container - Shows full details for one container, including its command, env vars, mounts, health, and restart count.
• list_images - Lists images on the current Docker daemon, with tags, size, labels, and container count.

Setup

No required env vars. If Docker is installed and running where this server can reach it, you can leave env empty.

Claude Desktop config

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "docker": {

      "args": ["-y", "@universal-mcp-toolkit/server-docker@latest"],
      "env": {}
    }
  }
}

Cursor config

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "docker": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["-y", "@universal-mcp-toolkit/server-docker@latest"],
      "env": {}
    }
  }
}

Quick example

Try this in Claude:

"List my running Docker containers, inspect the api container, and tell me if its ports, mounts, or env vars look off."
