Zed Video Dept. AI send_brief

How to: Zed Video Dept. AI send_brief

client:Zed transport:streamable-http tool:send_brief

Add Video Dept. AI to Zed

  1. 01

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

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

    Save the file and restart Zed.

  2. 03

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

  3. 04

    If nothing happens, check the server is running and that Video Dept. AI's identifier in your config matches the one above exactly.

Merge this into your existing settings object — do not replace the file. Zed docs

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.
