Zed
A context server entry in settings.json.
Kind MCP client
Transport Remote HTTP, declared as a context server.
Config settings.json (cmd-, → Open Settings)
Setup
- Open settings.json and add the block below under context_servers.
- Open the Agent panel and check the server is listed as running.
- Use it from the Agent panel.
{
"context_servers": {
"unzoi": {
"source": "custom",
"url": "https://api.unzoi.com/mcp",
"headers": { "x-api-key": "nai_your_key_here" }
}
}
}What differs here
- Zed’s MCP support has moved between releases and between the "context servers" and "agent servers" naming. Check the version you are on if the block above is rejected.
- The agent panel reports server status inline, so a failed connection is visible rather than silent.
- Zed prefers stdio servers in some versions; if remote HTTP is not accepted, the mcp-remote bridge works.
Next
- Get a key at console.unzoi.com, if you have not.
- The tool reference — what the model is reading when it chooses between the six tools.
- Stories for context windows — the one habit that most changes how well an agent works against this API.
- Limits — an agent that loops can spend a monthly quota faster than you expect.
- Zed's own MCP documentation — authoritative for anything about the client itself, including config paths, which move.
