## About

# Docker MCP Server

The Docker MCP Server is a [Model Context Protocol (MCP)](https://modelcontextprotocol.io/introduction)
server that provides seamless integration with Docker Desktop on Windows, enabling advanced
automation and interaction capabilities for developers and tools.

  
    
  

## Prerequisites

1. Install Docker Desktop for Windows from Docker's official [download page](https://docs.docker.com/desktop/setup/install/windows-install/).
2. In Docker Desktop, go to **Settings > General** and check the box for  
   **"Expose daemon on tcp://localhost:2375 without TLS"**.  
   This is required for the MCP server to communicate with Docker Desktop.

   > 💡 **Tip:** You can verify that the port is exposed successfully by opening  
   > `http://localhost:2375/version` in your browser. If the setup is correct,  
   > you should see a JSON response with Docker version information.
   > If you're having trouble, check this discussion for a possible solution:
   > [WSL and Docker for Windows: Cannot connect to the Docker daemon](https://forums.docker.com/t/wsl-and-docker-for-windows-cannot-connect-to-the-docker-daemon-at-tcp-localhost-2375-is-the-docker-daemon-running/63571/13)
