Zed BillionVerify health_check

How to: Zed BillionVerify health_check

client:Zed transport:streamable-http tool:health_check

Add BillionVerify to Zed

  1. 01

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

{
  "context_servers": {
    "billionverify-mcp": {
      "url": "https://mcp.billionverify.com/mcp"
    }
  }
}
  1. 02

    Save the file and restart Zed.

  2. 03

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

  3. 04

    If nothing happens, check the server is running and that BillionVerify'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

BillionVerify will not start until these are set, so health_check never becomes available.

  • BILLIONVERIFY_API_KEY
  • BILLIONVERIFY_API_URL

Same tool, other clients

This list was read from the server itself, by connecting to it and calling tools/list on 13 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.
