Install bolthub Marketplace in Zed

What you need first

• Zed, installed.
• Node.js, which gives the npx command the server starts with.

Steps

1. Open Zed's settings file, ~/.config/zed/settings.json (on Windows %APPDATA%\Zed\settings.json), or .zed/settings.json for one project.
2. Add this block. If the file already has context_servers, add only the entry inside it.

{
  "context_servers": {
    "registry": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["-y", "@bolthub/[email protected]"]
    }
  }
}

3. Save the file. Zed starts the server, and Settings › AI › MCP Servers lists it.

Check it worked

Ask Zed: List the tools of registry.

If it does not start

spawn npx ENOENT

Node.js is not on the PATH that Zed sees. Install it, or write the full path of npx in the config.

Nothing changes after a restart

The file is not valid JSON any more. Look for a missing comma where the block was added.
