EdgeDB in one click.

EdgeDB is a next-gen relational db built on postgresql you can run on your own machine. Launch it in Even Stacks in one click, serve it over trusted HTTPS, and let your AI agents operate it.

What is EdgeDB?

EdgeDB is a graph-relational database built on PostgreSQL with a strongly typed schema and a custom query language called EdgeQL. It supports object-oriented modeling and ships with a migration system.

Run EdgeDB in Even

Even Stacks launches EdgeDB 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 EdgeDB in the one-click services and click Launch.
  3. Even pulls the image, starts it on port 5656, and serves it over trusted HTTPS at https://edgedb.localhost.

Drive EdgeDB with your AI agents

Even ships an MCP, so any agent you run inside Even (Claude Code, Codex, and more) can operate EdgeDB 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 EdgeDB and get it ready", and the agent handles it end to end.

How agents reach it: No web UI is available; open an EdgeQL REPL with docker exec <container> edgedb. Apply schema migrations by running edgedb migrate inside the container. Data lives in /var/lib/edgedb, backed by an internal PostgreSQL instance.
