Today Whiskers enters public beta: a self-hosted control plane that makes your entire Docker fleet manageable in one place: containers, logs, metrics, CVEs, deployments and databases. And, at the same time, a hardened MCP server that puts clear limits on how an AI may touch your infrastructure.
Why Whiskers?
- MCP-native: the same capabilities for you and for AI clients like Claude Code, over a token-protected endpoint.
- Guardrails in code: the security policy is enforced at the tool boundary, not in the prompt. What is forbidden stays forbidden.
- SSH-key-free: hosts join the mesh over mutual TLS; no persistent key sits around.
- All-in-one: one tool instead of five tabs: firewall, Nginx, systemd, SSL and backups included.
Get started
Whiskers is open source (Apache-2.0) and runs as a container: ready in minutes. See Get Started for the details and the code on GitHub.
Beta note: run Whiskers on a trusted network and read the security policy first.
