Agents

Envlet for Zed

Zed's agent panel takes context servers from settings.json. Give it Envlet and run Zed with an identity of its own.

Install
{
  "context_servers": {
    "envlet": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["-y", "@envlet/cli", "mcp"]
    }
  }
}
Run with its own identity
envlet run -- zed .
Say the word
Move us to Envlet.

Set up

  1. 01

    Add the MCP server

    Add the entry under context_servers in Zed's settings.json.

  2. 02

    Give it an identity

    Create an agent identity for Zed in the dashboard or let the migrate prompt do it. Its token opens one environment, and production starts fully withheld.

  3. 03

    Run it through Envlet

    Start Zed with envlet run. It sees the values for its identity and nothing else, and every read shows up under its name.

Questions

Can Zed read production secrets?
Not by default. A new agent grant withholds every current and future production variable. You allow specific names when you decide to.
Do agent identities count toward my plan?
No. Agents and CI identities are unlimited on every plan. Only humans are members.

One command. The right values for whoever runs it.
