Zed Provian request_presentation

How to: Zed Provian request_presentation

client:Zed transport:streamable-http tool:request_presentation

Add Provian to Zed

  1. 01

    Open ~/.config/zed/settings.json and merge this in. Keep any servers already there.

{
  "context_servers": {
    "mcp": {
      "url": "https://api.provian.ai/mcp"
    }
  }
}
  1. 02

    Save the file and restart Zed.

  2. 03

    Ask for something request_presentation does. Zed lists the server's tools on connect and calls request_presentation itself — you do not invoke it by name.

  3. 04

    If nothing happens, check the server is running and that Provian's identifier in your config matches the one above exactly.

Merge this into your existing settings object — do not replace the file. Zed docs

Same tool, other clients

This list was read from the server itself, by connecting to it and calling tools/list on 6 November 2026. It is what the server actually exposes, not what its listing claims.

Mutating and Read-only are read off each tool's name, not its schema — a hint, not a guarantee. The registry stores tool names only; connect the server for its live schemas.
