Add support for OpenAI's /responses endpoint for models that don't
support /chat/completions API. This enables compatibility with newer
model variants (`gpt-5-codex`, `gpt-5-pro`, `o3-pro`, etc) while
maintaining compatibility with existing configs
Changes:
- Add `supports_chat_completions` flag to model capabilities that
defaults to true for existing behavior
- Implement responses API client with streaming support as per [OpenAI
documentation](https://app.stainless.com/api/spec/documented/openai/openapi.documented.yml).
- Add `ResponseEventMapper` to convert responses events to completion
events for maintainer simplicity
- Update UI to allow toggling `chat_completions` capability
- Add `gpt-5-codex` model
Closes#38858
Release Notes:
- Added support for `gpt-5-codex` model

## Documentation Update Summary
### Changes Made
| File | Change | Related Code |
| --- | --- | --- |
| `docs/src/ai/edit-prediction.md` | Updated Codestral setup
instructions to use Settings Editor path instead of outdated
`agent::OpenSettings` action reference | Settings Editor provider
configuration flow |
### Rationale
The primary documentation update addresses outdated instructions in the
Codestral setup section. The original text referenced an
`agent::OpenSettings` action that directed users to an "Agent Panel
settings view" which no longer reflects the current UI flow. The updated
instructions now guide users through the Settings Editor with
platform-specific keyboard shortcuts and provide an alternative status
bar path.
### Review Notes
- **Codestral instructions**: Reviewers should verify the Settings
Editor navigation path (`Cmd+,` → search "Edit Predictions" →
**Configure Providers**) matches the current Zed UI
- **Status bar alternative**: The alternative path via "edit prediction
icon in the status bar" should be confirmed as accurate

Now I have all the context needed to create a comprehensive
documentation update summary.
## Documentation Update Summary
### Changes Made
| File | Change | Related Code |
| --- | --- | --- |
| docs/src/ai/agent-panel.md | Added documentation for `agent::PasteRaw`
action, explaining automatic @mention formatting for pasted code and how
to bypass it | PR #45254 |
### Rationale
PR #45254 ("agent_ui: Improve UX when pasting code into message editor")
introduced the `agent::PasteRaw` action, which allows users to paste
clipboard content without automatic formatting. When users copy
multi-line code from an editor buffer and paste it into the Agent panel,
Zed now automatically formats it as an @mention with file context. The
`PasteRaw` action provides a way to bypass this behavior when raw text
is preferred.
This documentation update ensures users can discover both:
1. The new automatic @mention formatting behavior
2. The keybinding to bypass it when needed
### Review Notes
- The new paragraph was placed in the "Adding Context" section,
immediately after the existing note about image pasting support—this
maintains logical flow since both relate to pasting behavior
- Uses the standard `{#kb agent::PasteRaw}` syntax for keybinding
references, consistent with other keybinding documentation in the file
- The documentation passed Prettier formatting validation without
modifications
---
### Condensed Version (for commit message)
```
docs(agent-panel): Document PasteRaw action for bypassing auto @mention formatting
Added explanation that multi-line code pasted from editor buffers is
automatically formatted as @mentions, with keybinding to paste raw text.

Closes https://github.com/zed-industries/zed/issues/12589
Forces Zed to require user permissions before running any basic
potentially dangerous actions: parsing and synchronizing
`.zed/settings.json`, downloading and spawning any language and MCP
servers (includes `prettier` and `copilot` instances) and all
`NodeRuntime` interactions.
There are more we can add later, among the ideas: DAP downloads on
debugger start, Python virtual environment, etc.
By default, Zed starts in restricted mode and shows a `! Restricted
Mode` in the title bar, no aforementioned actions are executed.
Clicking it or calling `workspace::ToggleWorktreeSecurity` command will
bring a modal to trust worktrees or dismiss the modal:
<img width="1341" height="475" alt="1"
src="https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/4fabe63a-6494-42c7-b0ea-606abb1c0c20"
/>
Agent Panel shows a message too:
<img width="644" height="106" alt="2"
src="https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/0a4554bc-1f1e-455b-b97d-244d7d6a3259"
/>
This works on local, SSH and WSL remote projects, trusted worktrees are
persisted between Zed restarts.
There's a way to clear all persisted trust with
`workspace::ClearTrustedWorktrees`, this will restart Zed.
This mechanism can be turned off with settings:
```jsonc
"session": {
"trust_all_worktrees": true
}
```
in this mode, all worktrees will be trusted by default, allowing all
actions, but no auto trust will be persisted: hence, when the setting is
changed back, auto trusted worktrees will require another trust
confirmation.
This settings switch was added to the onboarding view also.
Release Notes:
- Introduced worktree trust mechanism, can be turned off with
`"session": { "trust_all_worktrees": true }`

First up: I'm sorry if this is a low quality PR, or if this feature
isn't wanted. I implemented this because I'd like to have this
behaviour. If you don't think that this is useful, feel free to close
the PR without comment. :)
My idea is this: I love to pull random models with Ollama to try them.
At the same time, not all of them are useful for coding, or some won't
work out of the box with the context_length set. So, I'd like to change
Zed's behaviour to not show me all models Ollama has, but to limit it to
the ones that I configure manually.
What I did is add an `auto_discover` field to the settings. The idea is
that you can write a config like this:
```json
"language_models": {
"ollama": {
"api_url": "http://localhost:11434",
"auto_discover": false,
"available_models": [
{
"name": "qwen3:4b",
"display_name": "Qwen3 4B 32K",
"max_tokens": 32768,
"supports_tools": true,
"supports_thinking": true,
"supports_images": true
}
]
}
}
```
The `auto_discover: false` means that Zed won't pick up or show the
language models that Ollama knows about, and will only show me the one I
manually configured in `available_models`. That way, I can pull random
models with Ollama, but in Zed I can only see the ones that I know work
(because I've configured them).
The default for `auto_discover` (when it is not explicitly set) is
`true`, meaning that the existing behaviour is preserved, and this is
not a breaking change for configurations.
Release Notes:
- ollama: Added `auto_discover` setting to optionally limit visible
models to only those manually configured in `available_models`
Closes#43598
Release Notes:
- bedrock: Added opt-in `allow_global` which enables global endpoints
- bedrock: Updated cross-region-inference endpoint and model list
- bedrock: Fixed Opus 4.5 access on Bedrock, now only accessible through the `allow_global` setting
Follow up to #39021.

- Add migration to remove `source` tag because `ContextServerSettings`
is now untagged
- Fix typos in context server modal
- PR seems to have removed the `test_action_namespaces` test, which I
brought back in this PR
Release Notes:
- Fixed an issue where the `source` property of MCP settings would show
up as unrecognised
This PR improves the edit prediction page particularly by adding
information about pricing and plans, which wasn't at all mentioned here
before, _and_ by including a section with a keybinding example
demonstrating how to always use just `tab` to always accept edit
predictions.
Release Notes:

Deals with https://github.com/zed-industries/zed/issues/5259
Highlights brackets with different colors based on their depth.
Uses existing tree-sitter queries from brackets.scm to find brackets,
uses theme's accents to color them.
https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/cc5f3aba-22fa-446d-9af7-ba6e772029da
1. Adds `colorize_brackets` language setting that allows, per language
or globally for all languages, to configure whether Zed should color the
brackets for a particular language.
Disabled for all languages by default.
2. Any given language can opt-out a certain bracket pair by amending the
brackets.scm like `("\"" @open "\"" @close) ` -> `(("\"" @open "\""
@close) (#set! rainbow.exclude))`
3. Brackets are using colors from theme accents, which can be overridden
as
```jsonc
"theme_overrides": {
"One Dark": {
"accents": ["#ff69b4", "#7fff00", "#ff1493", "#00ffff", "#ff8c00", "#9400d3"]
}
},
```
Release Notes:
- Added bracket colorization (rainbow brackets) support. Use
`colorize_brackets` language setting to enable.

### What this solves
This PR adds support for HTTP and SSE (Server-Sent Events) transports to
Zed's context server implementation, enabling communication with remote
MCP servers. Currently, Zed only supports local MCP servers via stdio
transport. This limitation prevents users from:
- Connecting to cloud-hosted MCP servers
- Using MCP servers running in containers or on remote machines
- Leveraging MCP servers that are designed to work over HTTP/SSE
### Why it's important
The MCP (Model Context Protocol) specification includes HTTP/SSE as
standard transport options, and many MCP server implementations are
being built with these transports in mind. Without this support, Zed
users are limited to a subset of the MCP ecosystem. This is particularly
important for:
- Enterprise users who need to connect to centralized MCP services
- Developers working with MCP servers that require network isolation
- Users wanting to leverage cloud-based context providers (e.g.,
knowledge bases, API integrations)
### Implementation approach
The implementation follows Zed's existing architectural patterns:
- **Transports**: Added `HttpTransport` and `SseTransport` to the
`context_server` crate, built on top of the existing `http_client` crate
- **Async handling**: Uses `gpui::spawn` for network operations instead
of introducing a new Tokio runtime
- **Settings**: Extended `ContextServerSettings` enum with a `Remote`
variant to support URL-based configuration
- **UI**: Updated the agent configuration UI with an "Add Remote Server"
option and dedicated modal for remote server management
### Changes included
- [x] HTTP transport implementation with request/response handling
- [x] SSE transport for server-sent events streaming
- [x] `build_transport` function to construct appropriate transport
based on URL scheme
- [x] Settings system updates to support remote server configuration
- [x] UI updates for adding/editing remote servers
- [x] Unit tests using `FakeHttpClient` for both transports
- [x] Integration tests (WIP)
- [x] Documentation updates (WIP)
### Testing
- Unit tests for both `HttpTransport` and `SseTransport` using mocked
HTTP client
- Manual testing with example MCP servers over HTTP/SSE
- Settings validation and UI interaction testing
### Screenshots/Recordings
[TODO: Add screenshots of the new "Add Remote Server" UI and
configuration modal]
### Example configuration
Users can now configure remote MCP servers in their `settings.json`:
```json
{
"context_servers": {
"my-remote-server": {
"enabled": true,
"url": "http://localhost:3000/mcp"
}
}
}
```
### AI assistance disclosure
I used AI to help with:
- Understanding the MCP protocol specification and how HTTP/SSE
transports should work
- Reviewing Zed's existing patterns for async operations and suggesting
consistent approaches
- Generating boilerplate for test cases
- Debugging SSE streaming issues
All code has been manually reviewed, tested, and adapted to fit Zed's
architecture. The core logic, architectural decisions, and integration
with Zed's systems were done with human understanding of the codebase.
AI was primarily used as a reference tool and for getting unstuck on
specific technical issues.
Release notes:
* You can now configure MCP Servers that connect over HTTP in your
settings file. These are not yet available in the extensions API.

"context_servers": {

Lychee is a [Rust based](https://lychee.cli.rs) async parallel link
checker.
I ran it against the codebase to suss out stale links and fixed those
up.
There's currently 2 remaining cases that I don't know how to resolve:
1. https://flathub.org/apps/dev.zed.Zed - nginx is giving a 502 bad
gateway
2.
https://github.com/zed-industries/zed/actions/workflows/ci.yml/badge.svg
- I don't want to mess with the CI pipeline in this PR.
Once again, I'll punt to the Docs Czar to see if this gets incorporated
into CI later.

This PR fixes some instances where we were displaying action names in
quotes instead of in backticks.
Also fixed some mentions of using an action to open the settings file,
as this has changed after the release of the settings UI.
Release Notes:
- N/A
This PR renames the `agent::QuoteSelection` to
`agent::AddSelectionToThread` _and_ adds it as a menu item in both the
right-click context menu within regular buffers as well as the
"Selection" app menu.
We've received feedback in the past about how hard to discover this
feature is, and after watching [the Syntax podcast
crew](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bRK3PeVFfVE) recently struggle
with doing so—and then naturally looking for it in the context menu and
not finding it—it felt like time to push a change. I think the rename +
the availability in these places could help bringing it to surface more.
The same action can be done in Cursor through the `cmd-l` keybinding,
but in Zed, that triggers `editor::SelectLine`, which I don't want to
override by default. However, if you're using Cursor's keymap, then
`cmd-l` does trigger this action, as expected.

/>
Release Notes:
- agent: Improves discoverability of the previously called "quote
selection" action—which allows to add a text selection in a buffer as
context within the agent panel—by renaming it to "add selection to
thread" and making it available from the right-click editor context menu
as well as the "Selection" app menu.
Adding this content after seeing people ask about how to make MCP
servers installed from Zed be picked up by external agents. At the
moment, this varies depending on the agent, and felt relevant to be
documented.
Release Notes:
- N/A
Removes the preview note of the `buffer_font_size` used for agent panel
buffers, now that's available in stable as of 206.6. Also ended up
removing the "available in agent settings UI" thing because... that will
very soon not be needed to be called out.
Release Notes:
- N/A
As of stable 206.0, the `agent.message_editor_min_lines` setting is
fully available, so removing the docs note that said it was only for
Preview.
Release Notes:
- N/A
