To connect Flyweel MCP to Zed, add a flyweel-mcp-server entry under context_servers in your Zed settings.json with the X-API-Key header pointing at your fwl_ token. Restart Zed; Flyweel’s tools show up in the assistant panel.

Step 1: Get an API tokenLink to this section

Go to app.flyweel.co
Click Settings → API & MCP
Under Advanced: use an API key instead, click Generate API key (or Create Token to name your own)
Copy the fwl_… token once — it won’t be shown again

Step 2: Open Zed settings.jsonLink to this section

~/Library/Application Support/Zed/settings.json

~/.config/zed/settings.json

%APPDATA%\Zed\settings.json

Or open it via cmd+, (macOS) / ctrl+, (Linux/Windows).

Step 3: Add the Flyweel context serverLink to this section

{
  "context_servers": {
    "flyweel-mcp-server": {
      "url": "https://api.flyweel.co/functions/v1/mcp-server/mcp",
      "headers": { "X-API-Key": "fwl_YOUR_TOKEN_HERE" }
    }
  }
}

Replace fwl_YOUR_TOKEN_HERE with your token.

Step 4: Reload ZedLink to this section

Zed picks up settings changes live, but the first time you add a server you may want to reload the window (cmd+shift+p, then Reload Window).

Step 5: Test itLink to this section

In Zed’s agent panel, ask:

What Google Ads accounts do I have connected to Flyweel?
