Docker ships Docker Agent: YAML-defined agents with MCP support
AI summary
Docker has released Docker Agent, an official tool for building and running AI agents from declarative YAML configs, with built-in tools and multi-agent orchestration. It ships as a docker CLI plugin, usable via the docker agent command after installing Docker Desktop 4.63 or later, and is also installable through Homebrew. The tool is said to support arbitrary MCP servers and to distribute and share agents as OCI images.
