Connect Zed to BCTRL MCP

On current Zed builds, add BCTRL to context_servers in settings.json:

{
  "context_servers": {
    "bctrl": {
      "source": "custom",
      "url": "https://api.bctrl.ai/mcp"
    }
  }
}

Zed prompts for the standard MCP OAuth flow when a remote server has no Authorization header. Add it from Agent Panel → Settings → MCP Servers → Add Custom Server.

If your Zed build only supports command-based context servers, bridge through mcp-remote:

{
  "context_servers": {
    "bctrl": {
      "source": "custom",
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["-y", "mcp-remote", "https://api.bctrl.ai/mcp"]
    }
  }
}
