Install CrawlKit Scrapers in Zed
What you need first
- Zed, installed.
- Nothing else: the server runs on its publisher's machines and Zed connects to it.
Steps
- Open Zed's settings file,
~/.config/zed/settings.json(on Windows%APPDATA%\Zed\settings.json), or.zed/settings.jsonfor one project. - Add this block. If the file already has
context_servers, add only the entry inside it.
{
"context_servers": {
"crawlkit-scrapers": {
"url": "https://mcp.apify.com/?actors=sweet_stickball/booking-scraper,sweet_stickball/airbnb-scraper,sweet_stickball/amazon-reviews-scraper,sweet_stickball/aliexpress-scraper,sweet_stickball/google-shopping-scraper,sweet_stickball/zillow-scraper,sweet_stickball/reddit-scraper,sweet_stickball/google-jobs-scraper,sweet_stickball/indeed-job-scraper,sweet_stickball/yelp-scraper,sweet_stickball/google-news-scraper,sweet_stickball/google-flights-scraper,sweet_stickball/shopify-store-scraper,sweet_stickball/telegram-public-channel-scraper,sweet_stickball/bing-ddg-serp"
}
}
} - Save the file. Zed starts the server, and Settings › AI › MCP Servers lists it.
Check it worked
Ask Zed: List the tools of crawlkit-scrapers.
If it does not start
- 401 Unauthorized
- The endpoint wants a sign-in or a key. Sign in when Zed asks.
- Nothing changes after a restart
- The file is not valid JSON any more. Look for a missing comma where the block was added.
