Project overview
Docker MCP Gateway is a Docker CLI plugin that can run with Docker Desktop or independently. It isolates MCP servers in containers, organizes them with profiles and OCI catalogs, and gives clients such as VS Code, Cursor, and Claude Desktop one gateway for tools, prompts, and resources. Secrets, OAuth, discovery, and call tracing are supported; Docker Desktop users need version 4.59 or newer with the MCP Toolkit.
