Zed Kinocut effect_vignette

How to: Zed Kinocut effect_vignette

client:Zed transport:streamable-http tool:effect_vignette

Add Kinocut to Zed

  1. 01

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

{
  "context_servers": {
    "kinocut": {
      "url": "https://mcp.kyanitelabs.tech/mcp"
    }
  }
}
  1. 02

    Save the file and restart Zed.

  2. 03

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

  3. 04

    If nothing happens, check the server is running and that Kinocut'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 13 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.
