Zed
Zed talks stdio MCP natively. For remote HTTPS servers like Creatorland, the `mcp-remote` npm bridge handles the HTTP transport from inside `settings.json`.

- Who it’s for
- Developers using Zed’s Agent Panel for AI-assisted editing.
- Compatibility
- Zed’s native MCP transport is stdio. For streaming HTTP servers, Zed’s docs recommend the [`mcp-remote`](https://www.npmjs.com/package/mcp-remote) npm bridge, it runs `npx -y mcp-remote {url}` as a local subprocess that handles the HTTPS round-trips and OAuth. Recent Zed builds also accept a direct `"url"` field on `context_servers` entries; both paths work, the bridge is the more broadly compatible default.
- Verify the connection
- After you sign in with your Creatorland account, your tools appear in the client, scoped to your account. If the list comes back empty, that signals the email you signed in with has no Creatorland account yet, create one (or sign in with the right one) at creatorland.com and reconnect. An empty list still confirms the OAuth handshake succeeded and you’re pointed at the right server.
Troubleshooting
- Zed reloads MCP servers automatically after `settings.json` saves, watch the Agent Panel for a green active indicator next to “creatorland.”
- If `mcp-remote` isn’t found, ensure `npx` is on your PATH (it ships with Node.js, a recent Node install satisfies this).
- A red indicator usually means the OAuth flow failed; check Zed’s log panel for the `mcp-remote` subprocess output.
