Run CouchDB in Even

Even Stacks launches CouchDB as a managed container on your own machine. No compose files, no manual setup.

  1. Open the Even Stacks panel in Even. The container engine starts on demand.
  2. Find CouchDB in the one-click services and click Launch.
  3. Even pulls the image, starts it on port 5984, and serves it over trusted HTTPS at https://couchdb.localhost.

Drive CouchDB with your AI agents

Even ships an MCP, so any agent you run inside Even (Claude Code, Codex, and more) can operate CouchDB directly, at both the UI level and the container level.

Through the Even MCP an agent can create tables, seed test data, run a migration, or inspect a schema, then tail the logs to confirm it worked. It runs commands inside the container, reads its logs, and for web apps opens and clicks through the interface in Even's own browser pane. Ask once, for example "set up CouchDB and get it ready", and the agent handles it end to end.

How agents reach it: Use the Fauxton console at http://localhost:5984/_utils (default admin/password) to browse databases and documents. For programmatic access use the HTTP REST API: GET /db/docid or PUT /db/docid with a JSON body. Data persists in /opt/couchdb/data.
