Securing Model Context Protocol: Safer Agentic AI with Containers
Model Context Protocol (MCP) tools remain primarily in the hands of early adopters, but broader adoption is accelerating. Alongside this growth, MCP security concerns are becoming more urgent. By increasing agent autonomy, MCP tools introduce new risks related to misalignment between agent behavior and user expectations and uncontrolled execution. These systems also present a novel...

Introducing Docker MCP Catalog and Toolkit: The Simple and Secure Way to Power AI Agents with MCP
Model Context Protocols (MCPs) are quickly becoming the standard for connecting AI agents to external tools, but the developer experience hasn't caught up. Discovery is fragmented, setup is clunky, and security is too often bolted on last. Fixing this experience isn't a solo mission-it will take an industry-wide effort. A secure, scalable, and trusted MCP...

How to build and deliver an MCP server for production
In December of 2024, we published a blog with Anthropic about their totally new spec (back then) to run tools with AI agents: the Model Context Protocol, or MCP. Since then, we've seen an explosion in developer appetite to build, share, and run their tools with Agentic AI - all using MCP. We've seen new...

Dockerizing MCP – Bringing Discovery, Simplicity, and Trust to the Ecosystem
AI agents are moving fast-from labs to real-world apps. And as they go from generating text to taking real action, the Model Context Protocol (MCP) has emerged as the de facto standard for connecting agents to tools. MCP is exciting. It's simple, modular, and built on web-native principles. We believe it has the potential to...
