Zed

Zed supports MCP through context_servers in settings. Recent versions support direct HTTP URLs; older setups can use the mcp-remote stdio bridge.

Prerequisites: YetiTech Docs MCP overview

ScopePath
User~/.config/zed/settings.json (Linux) · ~/Library/Application Support/Zed/settings.json (macOS)
Project.zed/settings.json in your project root

Open via Zed → Settings or Command Palette → zed: open settings

Section titled “Configuration (direct HTTP — recommended)”
{
"context_servers": {
"yetitech-docs": {
"url": "https://mcp.yetitechstudios.com"
}
}
}

If direct HTTP is unavailable in your Zed version, bridge with mcp-remote:

{
"context_servers": {
"yetitech-docs": {
"command": {
"path": "npx",
"args": [
"-y",
"mcp-remote",
"https://mcp.yetitechstudios.com"
]
}
}
}
}
  1. Save settings.json.
  2. Open the Agent panel → settings gear.
  3. Confirm yetitech-docs shows a green active indicator.

Zed forwards configured MCP servers to external agents via the Agent Client Protocol (ACP).
