Run Pinchflat in Even

Even Stacks launches Pinchflat 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 Pinchflat in the one-click services and click Launch.
  3. Even pulls the image, starts it on port 8945, and serves it over trusted HTTPS at https://pinchflat.localhost.

Drive Pinchflat with your AI agents

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

How agents reach it: Use the web UI at http://localhost:8945 to add YouTube channels or playlists and configure download quality and output path. Media downloads to the /downloads volume; config is in /config. All management is through the web UI; no REST API is exposed.
