# Connect Zed to BCTRL MCP

> Add the BCTRL MCP server to the Zed editor for hosted cloud-browser automation.

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

```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`:

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