Compatible with every major AI agent and IDE
What is the Dagger (Programmable CI) MCP Server?
Connect to the Dagger Engine to orchestrate your delivery pipelines using a powerful, programmable GraphQL API. This server allows your AI agent to interact directly with Dagger's Directed Acyclic Graph (DAG) of operations.
What you can do
- Container Orchestration — Initialize scratch containers, pull images, and manage OCI-compatible states.
- GraphQL Workflows — Execute raw GraphQL queries to compose complex build and test logic dynamically.
- Source Control — Query Git repositories and host environments to pull source code into your pipelines.
- Resource Management — Handle secrets securely, manage persistent cache volumes, and fetch remote files via HTTP.
- Module Inspection — Query the current module state and engine version to ensure environment consistency.
How it works
- Ensure a Dagger Engine is running in your environment.
- Provide the session port and token generated by the Dagger CLI.
- Start building and deploying through natural language commands.
Who is this for?
- DevOps Engineers — Automate pipeline debugging and execution without leaving the chat interface.
- Software Developers — Run builds, tests, and container operations directly from the code editor.
- SREs — Inspect engine states and orchestrate infrastructure tasks using programmable CI logic.

Why teams choose Vinkius for Dagger (Programmable CI) in LlamaIndex
The Dagger (Programmable CI) MCP Server runs on Vinkius-managed infrastructure inside AWS — a purpose-built runtime with per-request V8 isolates, Ed25519 signed audit chains, and sub-40ms cold starts. All 10 tools execute in hardened sandboxes optimized for native MCP execution.
Your AI agents in LlamaIndex only access the data you authorize, with DLP that blocks sensitive information from ever reaching the model, kill switch for instant shutdown, and up to 60% token savings. Enterprise-grade infrastructure, zero maintenance.

* Every MCP server runs on Vinkius-managed infrastructure inside AWS - a purpose-built runtime with per-request V8 isolates, Ed25519 signed audit chains, and sub-40ms cold starts optimized for native MCP execution. See our infrastructure
How Vinkius secures
Dagger (Programmable CI) for LlamaIndex
Every tool call from LlamaIndex to the Dagger (Programmable CI) MCP Server is protected by DLP redaction, cryptographic audit chains, V8 sandbox isolation, kill switch, and financial circuit breakers.
Frequently asked questions
How do I run a specific build command using Dagger?
You can use the execute_graphql_query tool to send a raw GraphQL query to the Dagger engine, allowing you to chain container operations like from, withExec, and stdout.
Can I access files from my local machine in the pipeline?
Yes, the query_host tool allows you to retrieve the state ID for your host environment, which can then be used to mount local directories into your Dagger containers.
How are secrets handled in this integration?
Use the query_secret tool to load secrets from URIs (like env:// or file://). This returns a secret ID that can be safely passed to other Dagger operations without exposing the plaintext value.
How does LlamaIndex connect to MCP servers?
Use the MCP client adapter to create a connection. LlamaIndex discovers all tools and wraps them as query engine tools compatible with any LlamaIndex agent.
Can I combine MCP tools with vector stores?
Yes. LlamaIndex agents can query Dagger (Programmable CI) tools and vector store indexes in the same turn, combining real-time and embedded data for grounded responses.
Does LlamaIndex support async MCP calls?
Yes. LlamaIndex's async agent framework supports concurrent MCP tool calls for high-throughput data processing pipelines.
