Zed | dbmcp

Open your settings with zed: open settings file and add the server under context_servers:

settings.json

{
  "context_servers": {
    "dbmcp": {
      "command": "dbmcp",
      "args": [],
      "env": {
        "DBMCP_DB_BACKEND": "mysql",
        "DBMCP_DB_HOST": "127.0.0.1",
        "DBMCP_DB_USER": "root",
        "DBMCP_DB_PASSWORD": "secret",
        "DBMCP_DB_NAME": "mydb"
      }
    }
  }
}

For a server you started with DBMCP_TRANSPORT=http, set url and headers instead of command. Without an Authorization header, Zed starts an OAuth flow.

settings.json

{
  "context_servers": {
    "dbmcp": {
      "url": "http://127.0.0.1:9001/mcp",
      "headers": { "Authorization": "Bearer <token>" }
    }
  }
}
