# OpenWork MCP for Zed

> Zed MCP setup for OpenWork Connect through mcp-remote and OAuth access to your org's shared capabilities.

The OpenWork MCP server ([OpenWork Connect](/docs/cloud/run-in-the-cloud/cloud-mcp))
enables Zed to use the OpenWork capabilities your organization has made
available to you: Gmail read/search, Calendar list/create, Drive search/read,
Gmail draft creation, shared MCP connections such as Notion, Linear, Slack,
Stripe, Exa, and Context7, shared skills, and OpenWork Cloud resources like
skills, plugins, marketplaces, workers, members, roles, teams, and LLM
providers. The server exposes only `search_capabilities` and
`execute_capability`, so Zed searches what you can access and runs exact
capability names instead of loading hundreds of tool definitions into context.

## Server URL

```text theme={null}
https://api.openworklabs.com/mcp/agent
```

OAuth sign-in uses your OpenWork account, and the organization you pick is
pinned into the token. If you do not have an account, create a
[free OpenWork account](https://app.openworklabs.com?mode=sign-up).

## Setup

Add this to Zed `settings.json`:

```json theme={null}
{
  "context_servers": {
    "openwork": {
      "source": "custom",
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["-y", "mcp-remote@latest", "https://api.openworklabs.com/mcp/agent"],
      "env": {}
    }
  }
}
```

`mcp-remote` handles the browser OAuth on an HTTP loopback callback, which
OpenWork accepts.

## Switch organizations

Remove the stored MCP auth token for `openwork`, then restart the server and
choose the organization you want during browser sign-in.

<Note>
  This is a setup guide. These steps match OpenWork Connect's OAuth profile:
  HTTPS or HTTP loopback callbacks, PKCE S256, and dynamic client registration
  fallback. Zed is listed as setup only because native proof is not complete. See
  the [client support status](/docs/cloud/run-in-the-cloud/cloud-mcp#client-support-status)
  table.
</Note>

## What you can ask

* "Which OpenWork organization am I connected to?"
* "Assign Priya to the Sales team."
* "Search my org's capabilities for calendar tools, then list tomorrow's events."
* "Find the Q3 launch page in Notion and summarize it."

## What's next

* Read the [hub overview](/docs/cloud/run-in-the-cloud/cloud-mcp) for OAuth, token,
  server exposure, and troubleshooting details.
* Publish Notion, Linear, Slack, and other shared tools with
  [shared MCP connections](/docs/cloud/share-with-your-team/shared-mcp-connections).
