Use Docker Desktop MCP Toolkit when available: open the Catalog tab, search Docker Hub, add it, then provide your Docker Hub username and PAT. For manual clients, clone/build hub-mcp and configure node dist/index.js --transport=stdio with HUB_USERNAME and HUB_PAT_TOKEN when authenticated access is needed.
