Run Valkey in Even

Even Stacks launches Valkey 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 Valkey in the one-click services and click Launch.
  3. Even pulls the image, starts it on port 6382, and serves it over trusted HTTPS at https://valkey.localhost.

Drive Valkey with your AI agents

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

Through the Even MCP an agent can create tables, seed test data, run a migration, or inspect a schema, then tail the logs to confirm it worked. 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 Valkey and get it ready", and the agent handles it end to end.

How agents reach it: Connect via redis-cli inside the container: docker exec -it valkey redis-cli. Fully Redis-compatible on port 6379. Persistent data is stored in /data using RDB or AOF snapshots depending on configuration.
