Zed Pulse check_vitals

How to: Zed Pulse check_vitals

client:Zed transport:streamable-http tool:check_vitals

Add Pulse to Zed

  1. 01

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

{
  "context_servers": {
    "pulse": {
      "url": "https://pulse.allthepossibles.com/mcp"
    }
  }
}
  1. 02

    Save the file and restart Zed.

  2. 03

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

  3. 04

    If nothing happens, check the server is running and that Pulse'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 19 October 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.
