Setup Pare with Zed

April 5, 2026 ยท View on GitHub

Manual Configuration

Config file: ~/.config/zed/settings.json

Add to your Zed settings:

{
  "context_servers": {
    "pare-git": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["-y", "@paretools/git"],
      "env": {}
    },
    "pare-test": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["-y", "@paretools/test"],
      "env": {}
    }
  }
}

Note: Zed uses "context_servers" (not "mcpServers") and requires an "env" field.

Verify

Restart Zed after editing the config. Use npx @paretools/init doctor to confirm servers are reachable.
