Install Amazon Creators in Zed

What you need first

Zed, installed.
Node.js, which gives the npx command the server starts with.
Your own values for YOUR_AMAZON_CLIENT_ID,YOUR_AMAZON_CLIENT_SECRET,YOUR_AMAZON_PARTNER_TAG,YOUR_AMAZON_CREDENTIAL_VERSION,YOUR_AMAZON_MARKETPLACE.

Steps

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

{
  "context_servers": {
    "amazon-creators": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["-y", "@houtini/[email protected]"],
      "env": { "AMAZON_CLIENT_ID": "YOUR_AMAZON_CLIENT_ID", "AMAZON_CLIENT_SECRET": "YOUR_AMAZON_CLIENT_SECRET", "AMAZON_PARTNER_TAG": "YOUR_AMAZON_PARTNER_TAG", "AMAZON_CREDENTIAL_VERSION": "YOUR_AMAZON_CREDENTIAL_VERSION", "AMAZON_MARKETPLACE": "YOUR_AMAZON_MARKETPLACE" }
    }
  }
}

Replace YOUR_AMAZON_CLIENT_ID,YOUR_AMAZON_CLIENT_SECRET,YOUR_AMAZON_PARTNER_TAG,YOUR_AMAZON_CREDENTIAL_VERSION,YOUR_AMAZON_MARKETPLACE with your own values.
Save the file. Zed starts the server, and Settings › AI › MCP Servers lists it.

Check it worked

Ask Zed: List the tools of amazon-creators.

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.
The server starts, but its tools fail: A YOUR_… placeholder is still in the config, or its value is wrong.
Nothing changes after a restart: The file is not valid JSON any more. Look for a missing comma where the block was added.
