# Context Servers
|
||||
|
||||
Context servers are a mechanism for pulling context into the Assistant from an external source. They are powered by the [Model Context Protocol](./model-context-protocol.md).
|
||||
|
||||
Currently Zed supports context servers providing [slash commands](./commands.md) for use in the Assistant.
|
||||
|
||||
## Installation
|
||||
|
||||
Context servers can be installed via [extensions](../extensions/context-servers.md).
|
||||
|
||||
If you don't already have a context server, check out one of these:
|
||||
|
||||
- [Postgres Context Server](https://github.com/zed-extensions/postgres-context-server)
|
||||
|
||||
## Configuration
|
||||
|
||||
Context servers may require some configuration in order to run or to change their behavior.
|
||||
|
||||
You can configure each context server using the `context_servers` setting in your `settings.json`:
|
||||
|
||||
```json
|
||||
{
|
||||
"context_servers": {
|
||||
"postgres-context-server": {
|
||||
"settings": {
|
||||
"database_url": "postgresql://postgres@localhost/my_database"
|
||||
}
|
||||
}
|
||||
}
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
If desired, you may also provide a custom command to execute a context server:
|
||||
|
||||
```json
|
||||
{
|
||||
"context_servers": {
|
||||
"my-context-server": {
|
||||
"command": {
|
||||
"path": "/path/to/my-context-server",
|
||||
"args": ["run"],
|
||||
"env": {}
|
||||
},
|
||||
"settings": {
|
||||
"enable_something": true
|
||||
}
|
||||
}
|
||||
}
|
||||
}
|
||||
```
