How to submit to Docker MCP Catalog
Open the Docker MCP Catalog submission page
This is the page makers use to add a product.
Create an account
Docker MCP Catalog asks you to sign up before you can submit.
Have your assets ready
Name, tagline, description, logo and screenshots. The checklist below covers what to prepare so you can fill the form in one go.
Fill in the form carefully
Pick the most specific category the form offers and write the description for the people who browse Docker MCP Catalog (Developers who run MCP servers through Docker and want containerized, reviewed options), not for search engines.
Wait for review
A person reviews submissions, so it can take a while. Once it’s live, check the link on your listing points to the right page.
Tips for Docker MCP Catalog
- Local servers need a Dockerfile in the repo; remote servers only need a streamable-http or SSE endpoint.
- Run 'task wizard' (or 'task create') in the repo to generate server.yaml; it builds the image and checks the server lists its tools.
- Check the license first: the guide calls MIT or Apache 2 fine and GPL not.
- Every PR needs a Docker team review; if your server needs keys, share test credentials through the form linked in the guide.
From Docker MCP Catalog’s own guidelines and pages, in our words.
What to prepare
The basics every directory asks for, plus what matters most for developer tool directories.
- Product name and a one-line tagline (about 60 characters)
- A short description (1–2 sentences) and a longer one (a short paragraph)
- Square logo, at least 256×256 px, PNG or SVG
- 2–3 screenshots at a consistent size
- The exact page you want the link to point to
- Pricing model (free, freemium or paid) and a contact email
- Links to your docs and a quick-start or install command
- Your GitHub or GitLab repo, if public
- Supported languages, frameworks and platforms
- Pricing for the API or hosted tier, including free limits
Is Docker MCP Catalog worth it?
Good for your SEO foundation
Docker MCP Catalog reviews listings by hand and the listing link we inspected was followed. That combination is what makes a directory link worth having for a new site.
- Domain Rating by Ahrefs: 92 (top tier). That's the strength of links to the whole site, not a promise about what your listing passes on.
- No Tranco rank on record, so we can’t say how much traffic it gets.
- A person reviews submissions, so expect a wait and a real quality bar.
- Free to list, so the only cost is your time.
This verdict is worked out from the facts above with fixed rules (link type, review, price, Domain Rating by Ahrefs, Tranco rank), not paid for. The directory has no say in it.
