Run Mealie in Even

Even Stacks launches Mealie 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 Mealie in the one-click services and click Launch.
  3. Even pulls the image, starts it on port 9925, and serves it over trusted HTTPS at https://mealie.localhost.

Drive Mealie with your AI agents

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

Through the Even MCP an agent can open its interface in Even's browser, fill in forms, and operate it for you. 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 Mealie and get it ready", and the agent handles it end to end.

How agents reach it: Open http://localhost:9925 or call the REST API at the same base URL (e.g., POST /api/recipes/). Data is stored in /app/data with SQLite by default. Prefer the API or UI over direct DB edits.
