Obsidian LiveSync in one click.

Obsidian LiveSync is a couchdb backend for obsidian livesync 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 Obsidian LiveSync?

Obsidian LiveSync is a community plugin that synchronizes Obsidian vaults in real time via a self-hosted CouchDB instance. It enables multi-device sync without relying on Obsidian Sync or third-party cloud storage.

Run Obsidian LiveSync in Even

Even Stacks launches Obsidian LiveSync 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 Obsidian LiveSync in the one-click services and click Launch.
  3. Even pulls the image, starts it on port 8310, and serves it over trusted HTTPS at https://obsidian-livesync.localhost.

Drive Obsidian LiveSync with your AI agents

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

Through the Even MCP an agent can run commands inside it, drive its UI in the browser pane, and read its logs. 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 Obsidian LiveSync and get it ready", and the agent handles it end to end.

How agents reach it: CouchDB admin UI at http://localhost:8310/_utils; set credentials via COUCHDB_USER and COUCHDB_PASSWORD env vars. In Obsidian configure the Self-hosted LiveSync plugin with this URL and those credentials to sync vaults. Data in /opt/couchdb/data.
