...It includes an example MCP server and client, facilitating the development and testing of MCP implementations. This tool is particularly useful for integrating MCP servers with applications like Claude Desktop that may not natively support remote server connections. ​

Docker’s MCP Gateway project is a Docker CLI plugin and supporting gateway system designed to run, manage, and securely expose MCP servers using container isolation. It underpins the MCP Toolkit experience in Docker Desktop, but it can also be used independently as a general-purpose MCP operational layer. The core idea is to treat MCP servers like containerized services, giving each server controlled privileges and a lifecycle you can inspect, enable/disable, and reset as needed. Instead of having each AI client manage its own MCP server configuration, the gateway provides a unified interface so multiple clients can connect consistently to the same configured tool surface. ...

...Its goal is to let teams “wire up” tools they already run—internal REST endpoints, third-party APIs, or local MCP servers—and present a single, reliable MCP interface to clients like Claude Desktop, Cursor, and IDEs. The gateway focuses on operational concerns you’d expect in production: multi-instance availability, health checking, and declarative routing that maps upstreams to MCP tools and resources. A quick-start and CLI make it easy to stand up an API server, while the package structure exposes helpers for people who want to embed or extend the gateway. ...
