Thanos in one click.

Thanos is a long-term prometheus storage and global query view 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 Thanos?

Thanos extends Prometheus with highly available, long-term metric storage backed by object storage services such as S3 or GCS. It provides a unified global query view across multiple Prometheus instances.

Run Thanos in Even

Even Stacks launches Thanos 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 Thanos in the one-click services and click Launch.
  3. Even pulls the image, starts it, and serves it over trusted HTTPS at https://thanos.localhost.

Drive Thanos with your AI agents

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

How agents reach it: No web UI; the Thanos Query component exposes a Prometheus-compatible HTTP API for federated queries. Use docker exec for thanos subcommands (store, compact, etc.). Long-term storage requires an object store configured via --objstore.config flag.
