Connect Zed

  1. In GoRunner, open MCP in the sidebar. If an app is already connected, press Connect an AI app. Choose Zed; if it isn’t shown, press All 13 apps.
    The Connect an AI app panel with Zed chosen. The ringed key is the one to press.
  2. Press Copy next to MCP server address. Open Settings → AI → MCP Servers, then Add Server → Add Remote Server.
  3. Paste the address, name it gorunner and save. Sign in when Zed asks.
  4. On Allow “Zed” to use GoRunner?, choose the workspace and what it may do, then press Allow access.

Since v2026.10.23

  1. In the product you use, open MCP, press Connect an AI app and choose Zed. Press Copy next to the address.
  2. Open Settings → AI → MCP Servers, then Add Server → Add Remote Server.
  3. Paste the address, name it workflows and save. Sign in when Zed asks.
  4. Choose what it may do, then press Allow access.

You should see “Connected · Zed · Acme · 12 tools” in the panel.

It stays connected for up to 180 days, or until you disconnect it.

The panel shows your product’s name where these steps say workflows. Without sign-in for AI apps, the panel shows Zed with a token instead: make or paste one, and copy the setting it fills in. If the product lets apps run your workflows but not build them, the address ends in /tools. Zed can then only call your published workflows. See Turn your workflows into tools.

Can I use an API token instead?

Yes, for an app that can’t sign in. In the panel, press Use an API token instead. Connect with an API token shows each step.

How do I disconnect Zed?

On the MCP page, under Connected apps, press Disconnect next to the app. Revoke a token in Settings › Workspace › API tokens.

On the product’s MCP page, press Disconnect next to the app.

It stops on its next request. Remove it in Zed too.

What you can ask

13 tools: it reads, drafts and runs in the workspaces you choose. It publishes only if you allow it.What it can do depends on what the product allows: building, or only your published workflows. If Zed lists the server’s commands, try one:

  • Build a workflow (when it may write drafts)
  • Diagnose a failed run
  • Explain a workflow

It can also call your own published workflows.

For developers

AI apps connect through MCP (Model Context Protocol). Zed adds the server https://api.gorunner.io/mcp/build under the name gorunner and signs in with OAuth. Self-hosted: your installation’s address, ending in /mcp/build.
