Zed Oxford Ledge reading_list_annotate

How to: Zed Oxford Ledge reading_list_annotate

client:Zed transport:streamable-http tool:reading_list_annotate

Add Oxford Ledge to Zed

  1. 01

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

{
  "context_servers": {
    "oxford-ledge": {
      "url": "https://www.oxfordledge.com/mcp"
    }
  }
}
  1. 02

    Save the file and restart Zed.

  2. 03

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

  3. 04

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

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

Set these first

Oxford Ledge will not start until these are set, so reading_list_annotate never becomes available.

  • OXFORD_LEDGE_URL
  • OXFORD_LEDGE_API_KEY
  • FRED_API_KEY

Same tool, other clients

This list was read from the server itself, by connecting to it and calling tools/list on 4 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.
