Install Autotask in Zed

What you need first

Zed, installed.
Docker, which gives the docker command the server starts with.
Your own values for YOUR_AUTOTASK_USERNAME,YOUR_AUTOTASK_SECRET,YOUR_AUTOTASK_INTEGRATION_CODE.

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": {
    "autotask-mcp": {
      "command": "docker",
      "args": ["run", "-i", "--rm", "-e", "AUTOTASK_USERNAME", "-e", "AUTOTASK_SECRET", "-e", "AUTOTASK_INTEGRATION_CODE", "ghcr.io/wyre-technology/autotask-mcp:v2.32.10"],
      "env": { "AUTOTASK_USERNAME": "YOUR_AUTOTASK_USERNAME", "AUTOTASK_SECRET": "YOUR_AUTOTASK_SECRET", "AUTOTASK_INTEGRATION_CODE": "YOUR_AUTOTASK_INTEGRATION_CODE" }
    }
  }
}

Replace YOUR_AUTOTASK_USERNAME,YOUR_AUTOTASK_SECRET,YOUR_AUTOTASK_INTEGRATION_CODE 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 autotask-mcp.

If it does not start

Cannot connect to the Docker daemon: Docker is not running. Start it, then restart Zed.
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.
