Get started quickly with these pre-built prompts for common Appwrite integrations:

Connect Appwrite MCP servers to Zed for deeper integration with the Appwrite API and documentation.

Before you begin, ensure you have the following pre-requisites installed on your system:

In Zed, open the Command Palette (press CMD + Shift + P on MacOS or CTRL + Shift + P on Linux), run the agent: add context server action, and choose which MCP server you want to configure:

{
  "appwrite-api": {
    "command": "uvx",
    "args": [
      "mcp-server-appwrite"
    ],
    "env": {
      "APPWRITE_PROJECT_ID": "your-project-id",
      "APPWRITE_API_KEY": "your-api-key",
      "APPWRITE_ENDPOINT": "https://<REGION>.cloud.appwrite.io/v1"
    }
  }
}

{
  "appwrite-docs": {
    "url": "https://mcp-for-docs.appwrite.io"
  }
}

Click Add Server after adding each configuration. You can also review the configured servers in the Model Context Protocol (MCP) Servers section of Zed's Agent settings.

Install Appwrite skills to give Zed's agent SDK-specific knowledge about Appwrite.

Run the following command in your project directory:

npx skills add appwrite/agent-skills

When prompted:

1. Select the Appwrite skills that match the SDKs you use in your project.
2. Select Zed as one of the AI tools that should use the installed skills.
3. Choose whether to install the skills at the project level or globally.
4. Select symlink as the installation method.

Zed loads skills from ~/.agents/skills/ for global installs and <worktree>/.agents/skills/ for project-local installs. Each skill must be a direct child of the skills folder and include a SKILL.md file.

Open the Agent panel in Zed and test your MCP integrations. You can try out the following example prompts based on the MCP server you have configured:
