How to: Zed Gmail Agent by Nova (CIVAI) gmail__compose_email

client:Zed transport:streamable-http tool:gmail__compose_email

Add Gmail Agent by Nova (CIVAI) to Zed

  1. 01

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

{
  "context_servers": {
    "gmail-agent": {
      "url": "https://nova.civai.co/mcp/agents/gmail-agent"
    }
  }
}
  1. 02

    Save the file and restart Zed.

  2. 03

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

  3. 04

    If nothing happens, check the server is running and that Gmail Agent by Nova (CIVAI)'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.
