About docker/hub-mcp
A TypeScript-based MCP server that provides a standardized interface for interacting with Docker Hub. It enables developers to search for images, manage repositories, and inspect container metadata through the Model Context Protocol.
Best for
Developers using MCP-based IDEs or assistants who need to query Docker Hub programmatically
Use cases
- Search Docker Hub for images by name or tag
- List and manage repositories in a Docker Hub account
- Retrieve detailed metadata for specific container images
Notes
150 stars on GitHub. Last updated 2026-05-27. Licensed Apache-2.0.
Pros
- Integrates Docker Hub operations directly into MCP-compatible tools
- Lightweight and focused on a single, well-defined API
- Open source with active community contributions
Cons
- Limited to Docker Hub, not other container registries
- Requires an MCP client to be useful
- Relatively new with a small user base

Add docker/hub-mcp to your client
No install recipe yet. We write one for Claude Code, Claude Desktop, Cursor, VS Code, Codex and ChatGPT when the server is in the official MCP registry with a package or remote address we can use.
Until then, follow the project's own README, or the setup the listing publishes under How to set it up.

- Low The documented install uses @modelcontextprotocol/inspector, whose published metadata points at github.com/modelcontextprotocol/inspector, not this repository. Check it is the right package before installing.
- Note No published npm or PyPI package of this repository was found, so package advisories were not checked.
- Note Asks for HUB_PAT_TOKEN through environment variables.
- Note The lab has not recorded this server's tool list yet, so tool permissions were not checked.
