Zed Wicked MCP sanity_check

How to: Zed Wicked MCP sanity_check

client:Zed transport:streamable-http tool:sanity_check

Add Wicked MCP to Zed

  1. 01

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

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

    Save the file and restart Zed.

  2. 03

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

  3. 04

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

Wicked MCP will not start until these are set, so sanity_check never becomes available.

  • WICKEDAPI_API_KEY
  • WICKEDAPI_PAYER_PRIVATE_KEY

Same tool, other clients

This list was read from the server itself, by connecting to it and calling tools/list on 5 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.
