Zed mailbox get_mailbox_md

How to: Zed mailbox get_mailbox_md

client:Zed transport:streamable-http tool:get_mailbox_md

Add mailbox to Zed

  1. 01

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

{
  "context_servers": {
    "mailbox": {
      "url": "https://mailbox.bot/api/mcp"
    }
  }
}
  1. 02

    Save the file and restart Zed.

  2. 03

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

  3. 04

    If nothing happens, check the server is running and that mailbox'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 24 September 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.
