The version rule is the first thing to get right: the MCP server's minor version has to match the Portainer instance it talks to, because the tools are generated from that release's OpenAPI specification. Beyond listing and inspecting environments and managing GitOps workflows, it can pass requests through to the underlying Docker and Kubernetes APIs of a managed environment, which is how it reaches resources Portainer's own REST surface does not model. Local use runs over stdio through uvx or a one-click MCP bundle. The container deployment for shared team use forces an explicit transport decision — your own certificates, an attested TLS-terminating proxy, or a deliberate opt-in to plaintext — since both the gate secret and each user's API key travel on the wire.
