Add Namera to Zed's Agent Panel as a context server.

Install [Namera](https://namera.ai/docs/mcp/installation) and complete
[account setup](https://namera.ai/docs/mcp/getting-started#prepare-your-account) on the machine
that will run the client. Make sure its process can find both `namera` and Node.js.

## Add Namera [#add-namera]

Open Zed's settings JSON and add a `context_servers` entry:

```json
{
  "context_servers": {
    "namera": {
      "command": "namera",
      "args": ["mcp", "serve", "--profile", "zed"]
    }
  }
}
```

Merge this entry into your existing configuration without removing other servers
or settings. If `namera` cannot be found, use its
[absolute executable path](https://namera.ai/docs/mcp/troubleshooting#the-client-cannot-find-namera).

Zed calls these **context servers**. Use `context_servers`, not `mcpServers`.
See [Zed's MCP documentation](https://zed.dev/docs/ai/mcp).

## Authorize [#authorize]

```sh
namera mcp login --profile zed
namera mcp status --profile zed
```

Approve the connection in your browser and select the active session keys it may
use. Run these commands as the same OS user that runs the client. Namera saves
the connection in your OS keyring; no API key belongs in the client config.

## Use Namera [#use-namera]

Open **Settings → AI → MCP Servers** and check that Namera is active. In the
Agent Panel, select a profile that includes its tools. Keep the tool permission
policy on confirmation rather than allowing every tool automatically.

Ask in a new conversation:

> Use Namera to list my accounts and session keys. Summarize their networks and
> permissions. Do not submit a transaction or sign a message.

Allow the read tools if prompted. If Namera requests browser authorization,
complete it and retry the read request. An empty result means no resources were
returned for this connection; do not ask the agent to invent account details.

Keep tool confirmations enabled for execution and signing where supported. See
[Permissions and Limits](https://namera.ai/docs/mcp/permissions) before granting broader access.

## Disconnect [#disconnect]

```sh
namera mcp logout --profile zed
```

Also remove or disable the `namera` server in the client to stop it launching.
Logout revokes the MCP connection without deleting imported keys. If revocation
fails, revoke the connection in the dashboard as instructed by the error.
