Run Vector in Even

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

Drive Vector with your AI agents

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

How agents reach it: Configure data pipelines in vector.toml or vector.yaml mounted at /etc/vector/. Use `docker exec -it vector vector top` to monitor live pipeline throughput and drop rates. Restart the container to reload config; no persistent storage is used by default.
