What is MCP Containerd
MCP Containerd is an open-source MCP server developed using the RMCP (Rust Model Context Protocol) library, specifically designed for managing containerd environments. This project provides a server interface that operates on containerd's CRI (Container Runtime Interface) endpoints, enabling seamless communication and orchestration of containers and images through standardized APIs. By leveraging Rust's performance and safety, MCP Containerd aims to deliver a robust backend for cloud-native environments, supporting advanced container lifecycle management, image operations, and integration with AI-driven clients. The server implements both runtime and image services, allowing users to create, manage, and interact with containers and their images, making it ideal for developers, DevOps engineers, and AI/automation systems looking for a programmable and secure interface to containerd.
Capabilities
What we can do with MCP Containerd
With MCP Containerd, users can programmatically manage all aspects of their containerd-based container infrastructure. The platform exposes a variety of CRI operations that enable direct interaction with running containers, their images, and the underlying runtime. This is particularly useful for automation, orchestration, and integrating container management into custom workflows or AI-driven environments.
- Container Lifecycle Management
- Create, start, stop, and delete containers and pod sandboxes with ease.
- Image Operations
- List, pull, delete, and inspect container images directly from the containerd runtime.
- Status Querying
- Retrieve the current status of pods, containers, and images for monitoring and health checks.
- Execute Commands
- Run commands inside live containers for diagnostics or automation.
- Integration with AI Clients
- Seamlessly connect with chat-based or programmatic clients to enable automated infrastructure management.

What is MCP Containerd
AI agents and automation systems can greatly benefit from MCP Containerd by leveraging its programmable API to orchestrate, monitor, and manage containerized workloads in real-time. This enables dynamic infrastructure scaling, intelligent diagnostics, and self-healing systems, all through secure and reliable interactions with the containerd backend.
