## About

Docker's MCP Gateway is a Docker CLI plugin, used by the Docker MCP Toolkit, that runs MCP servers as containers and exposes them to AI clients through a single gateway. It manages catalogs of 300+ verified servers, profiles, secrets and OAuth, and supports dynamic server discovery.

## Install

1. **Add the server to Codex**

   Codex CLI:

   ```bash
   codex mcp add docker-mcp-gateway -- docker mcp gateway run
   ```

   config.toml:

   ```toml
   [mcp_servers.docker-mcp-gateway]
   command = "docker"
   args = ["mcp", "gateway", "run"]
   ```

   Agents SDK:

   ```python
   from agents import Agent, Runner
   from agents.mcp import MCPServerStdio
   
   async with MCPServerStdio(
       name="Docker MCP Gateway",
       params={"command": "docker", "args": ["mcp", "gateway", "run"]},
   ) as server:
       agent = Agent(name="Assistant", mcp_servers=[server])
       result = await Runner.run(agent, "Add the GitHub and Notion MCP servers from the Docker catalog")
       print(result.final_output)
   ```

## Example prompts

- "Add the GitHub and Notion MCP servers from the Docker catalog"
- "Which MCP servers are enabled in my web-dev profile?"
- "Find an MCP server in the catalog for Slack and enable it"
