Zed Frosh about_frosh

How to: Zed Frosh about_frosh

client:Zed transport:streamable-http tool:about_frosh

Add Frosh to Zed

  1. 01

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

{
  "context_servers": {
    "mcp": {
      "url": "https://frosh.org/mcp"
    }
  }
}
  1. 02

    Save the file and restart Zed.

  2. 03

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

  3. 04

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

Frosh will not start until these are set, so about_frosh never becomes available.

Same tool, other clients

This list was read from the server itself, by connecting to it and calling tools/list on 14 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.
