Zed Setup

Add Memcone memory to Zed in under 60 seconds.

Run this in your project directory:

bash
npx @memcone/cli link
npx @memcone/cli link

link detects Zed and writes the MCP config automatically. Reload Zed and you're done.

You need a Memcone API key from dashboard → API keys. The CLI will prompt for it on first run and save it to ~/.memcone/credentials.


Manual config

Open your Zed settings (Cmd+,) and add a context_servers block:

json
{
  "context_servers": {
    "memcone": {
      "url": "https://memcone.com/api/mcp",
      "headers": {
        "Authorization": "Bearer mem_live_YOUR_KEY_HERE"
      }
    }
  }
}
{
  "context_servers": {
    "memcone": {
      "url": "https://memcone.com/api/mcp",
      "headers": {
        "Authorization": "Bearer mem_live_YOUR_KEY_HERE"
      }
    }
  }
}

Reload with Cmd+Shift+PReload Extensions or restart Zed.


Using it

In any Zed AI panel session, the AI now has access to:

  • memcone.context — injects your project identity, rules, and past session memory
  • memcone.remember — stores facts the AI learns about you
  • memcone.recall — searches past memory on demand

"Remember that I use two-space indentation in this project"

"What have we discussed about the API design?"


Troubleshooting

Tools don't appear → Confirm the context_servers key is at the root of your settings JSON and reload extensions.

401 Unauthorized → Verify your key at dashboard → API keys. It must start with mem_live_.

No memory returned → Nothing is stored yet. Tell Zed AI: "Remember that this project uses Elixir and Phoenix". Confirm at dashboard → Memory.
