remote-server-mcp

Security-first MCP server for Docker service management over SSH or on the local host.

Part of the Server MCP suite. It exposes a fixed catalog of 21 tools (directory and container discovery, container and host-service logs, status and health, start/stop/restart, scoped Compose operations, confined file reads, server health and read-only InfluxDB/Prometheus queries). No generic command execution.

The container CLI is configurable (docker, podman or nerdctl). restart_service, stop_service, compose_pull, compose_up and compose_down require confirm=true and are bounded by a per-process rate limit. Streamable HTTP is available with --transport streamable-http: it binds to loopback by default and requires a bearer token for any other address.

Host infrastructure services such as telegraf, smartd and docker are systemd units, not containers. get_host_service_status and get_host_service_logs read them with systemctl/journalctl and only accept units listed in security.host_units.

Container logs always include timestamps. A log request can add a since/until window and target one container in a compose project; search matches the exact literal pattern. Every tool publishes a structured ToolResponse next to the readable text. Composite and listing responses receive a final output.max_bytes cap. When the audit log is enabled, InfluxDB and Prometheus queries are recorded by length/SHA-256 fingerprint rather than by query text.

Prometheus is optional. Its metric endpoints can be reached through an HTTPS reverse proxy or a loopback-only ssh_tunnel created by the MCP; see configuration.

uv run --directory apps/remote-server-mcp remote-server-mcp

Requires a config file; see config.example.yaml in this directory.
