Zed WorkoutX Exercise API diagnose_request

How to: Zed WorkoutX Exercise API diagnose_request

client:Zed transport:streamable-http tool:diagnose_request

Add WorkoutX Exercise API to Zed

  1. 01

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

{
  "context_servers": {
    "workoutx": {
      "url": "https://api.workoutxapp.com/mcp"
    }
  }
}
  1. 02

    Save the file and restart Zed.

  2. 03

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

  3. 04

    If nothing happens, check the server is running and that WorkoutX Exercise API'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

WorkoutX Exercise API will not start until these are set, so diagnose_request never becomes available.

Same tool, other clients

This list was read from the server itself, by connecting to it and calling tools/list on 29 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.
