01 · Why connect

Zed documents MCP context servers in settings.json. Use the remote HTTP URL.

Field names vary by Zed version (context_servers vs mcp). Prefer HTTP URL over command. The Make0 MCP URL is https://make0.ai/mcp. Zed can sign in with OAuth on any plan, or use an API key on Pro and Max. Either way, you pick which brains it can use.

02 · How to connect Zed

Install Make0 Brain in 4 steps

  1. 01

    Open Zed MCP docs settings

    Edit Zed settings.json for context servers.

  2. 02

    Add Make0

    Set url to https://make0.ai/mcp.

  3. 03

    OAuth

    Reload Zed and complete Make0 sign-in.

  4. 04

    Agent

    In the agent panel, ask Zed to search your Brain.

03 · Zed settings.json

Copy this into Zed

Use HTTP or Streamable HTTP. Do not wrap Make0 as a local stdio command. This config signs in with OAuth.

{
  "context_servers": {
    "make0-brain": {
      "url": "https://make0.ai/mcp"
    }
  }
}

04 · API key

Or connect with an API key

On Pro and Max you can skip the sign-in and use an API key. In Make0, open Connect Brain via MCP, choose API key MCP, and create a key with the brains and access it needs. Add a headers block to the context server in settings.json.

Zed settings.json

{
  "context_servers": {
    "make0-brain": {
      "url": "https://make0.ai/mcp",
      "headers": {
        "Authorization": "Bearer YOUR_MAKE0_API_KEY"
      }
    }
  }
}

Replace YOUR_MAKE0_API_KEY with your key. Make0 shows a key once, so keep it somewhere safe. You can revoke it any time in Settings.

05 · System instruction

Tell the agent to prefer Make0 Brain

Paste this into Zed’s system instructions or custom instructions so it reads and writes memory through Make0 instead of its own store.

Make0 Brain is my source of truth for durable memory. Always search it before answering about me, my work, people, preferences, or past decisions. Save lasting facts and decisions to Brain. Never guess or invent memories. Use Brain exclusively for durable memory.

Questions

Connecting Zed

How do I connect Make0 Brain to Zed?+

Add Make0 as a remote HTTP MCP server using https://make0.ai/mcp. In the Make0 connect dialog, choose OAuth and Zed will open a sign-in so you can pick which brains it can use. On Pro or Max, if Zed accepts custom headers, you can choose API key MCP instead and send the key to this URL as Authorization: Bearer.

What is the Make0 MCP URL?+

The production Make0 Brain MCP endpoint is https://make0.ai/mcp. Use HTTP or Streamable HTTP if the client asks for a transport. Server name: make0-brain.

Does Make0 Brain MCP use OAuth?+

Yes. Compatible clients discover OAuth from the MCP server, you sign in to Make0, and you grant read or write access to specific brains. Two-factor authentication may be required.

Can I use an API key instead of OAuth?+

On Pro or Max, yes, for apps that let you set an HTTP header. Open Connect Brain via MCP, choose API key MCP, and create a key for specific brains or all brains. Send it to https://make0.ai/mcp as Authorization: Bearer. OAuth works on every plan; Free and Lite use OAuth.
