Docker & Model Context Protocol

The Model Context Protocol (MCP) is an open protocol designed by Anthropic that enables AI assistants such as Claude to interact with external tools and data sources in a standardized way.

Docker has partnered with Anthropic to build and maintain container images for MCP servers, available on Docker Hub under the mcp/ namespace. This partnership brings several benefits:

  • Containerized MCP Servers: Run MCP servers as containers with proper isolation and security
  • Ask Gordon Integration: Use Docker's CLI AI assistant with MCP servers through gordon-mcp.yml
  • Docker Compose Configuration: Leverage Docker Compose for easy setup with bind mounts and environment variables
  • Official Repository: Access verified MCP server images from Docker Hub
  • Customizable Access: Control which resources MCP servers can access through container configuration

Quick Start with Ask Gordon:

# Create gordon-mcp.yml
services:
  time:
    image: mcp/time
  fetch:
    image: mcp/fetch
  fs:
    image: mcp/filesystem
    command:
      - /rootfs
    volumes:
      - .:/rootfs

Then simply run: docker ai 'what time is it in Tokyo?'
