    await container.restart();
    return `Container ${id} restarted`;
  }

• src/index.ts:90-98 (registration)

  Registration of the 'restart_container' MCP tool with the server, including the tool name, description, and handler that calls restartContainer.

  server.tool(
    "restart_container",
    "Restart a Docker container.",
    { id: z.string().describe("Container ID or name") },
    async ({ id }) => {
      const result = await restartContainer(id);
      return { content: [{ type: "text", text: result }] };
    },
  );
