Zed Iris get_conversation_responder

How to: Zed Iris get_conversation_responder

client:Zed transport:streamable-http tool:get_conversation_responder

Add Iris to Zed

  1. 01

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

{
  "context_servers": {
    "iris": {
      "url": "https://api.iris-ai.dev/mcp"
    }
  }
}
  1. 02

    Save the file and restart Zed.

  2. 03

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

  3. 04

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

Iris will not start until these are set, so get_conversation_responder never becomes available.

  • IRIS_API_KEY
  • IRIS_API_URL

Same tool, other clients

This list was read from the server itself, by connecting to it and calling tools/list on 10 November 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.
