## Install or set up

1. Install `uv` and Docker. Register the `uvx` server in Claude Code; understand that giving an agent access to Docker also grants broad access to local containers and the host.
2. After setup, run `claude mcp list` or `/mcp` in Claude Code to check the connection. Use the linked setup source for service-specific authentication.

```sh
claude mcp add docker -- uvx mcp-server-docker
```
