Stirling PDF in one click.
Stirling PDF is a pdf toolkit 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 Stirling PDF?
Stirling PDF is a self-hosted web application for performing PDF operations including merging, splitting, converting, compressing, rotating, and editing files. All processing runs locally without external services.
Run Stirling PDF in Even
Even Stacks launches Stirling PDF as a managed container on your own machine. No compose files, no manual setup.
- Open the Even Stacks panel in Even. The container engine starts on demand.
- Find Stirling PDF in the one-click services and click Launch.
- Even pulls the image, starts it on port 8098, and serves it over trusted HTTPS at
https://stirling-pdf.localhost.
Drive Stirling PDF with your AI agents
Even ships an MCP, so any agent you run inside Even (Claude Code, Codex, and more) can operate Stirling PDF 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 Stirling PDF and get it ready", and the agent handles it end to end.
