AI knowledge base for Zed.
Zed is fast; hunting through a browser tab for docs isn’t. Add Perfect Wiki as a context server, and the Agent Panel answers from your team’s docs, API references and incident notes without you leaving the editor.
Connect Zed in two minutes.
Add a context_servers entry with the Perfect Wiki URL. When there’s no Authorization header, Zed asks you to sign in with OAuth on its own.
- →A few lines in settings.json — or Add Remote Server in the UI
- →OAuth prompt appears automatically, no token required
- →Perfect Wiki tools available to the Agent Panel
Your team’s memory, one panel away.
Past incidents, API conventions and internal how-tos become context the agent can fetch while it works — and pages it can write when a fix deserves documenting.
- →Incident history and postmortems searchable from the editor
- →Internal API references fetched as full pages
- →New learnings saved back as wiki pages

Generate a token in the Perfect Wiki settings of the knowledge base you want to expose. Each token is scoped to a single knowledge base and has read & write access.
What your team does with Perfect Wiki in Zed.
Postmortems at your fingertips
Before you debug from scratch, the agent checks whether the team has seen this failure before and what fixed it.
Internal APIs, in context
Internal services rarely have public docs. The agent reads your wiki’s API pages so generated clients use the right endpoints and auth.
Document the fix while it’s fresh
Once the bug is solved, turn the debugging session into a troubleshooting page the next person will actually find.
Ask a natural-language question and get an AI answer with sources.
List every page in the connected knowledge base.
Read the full content of a specific page.
Create a new page — draft SOPs straight from chat.
Update an existing page, so SOPs never go stale.
Remove pages that are no longer needed.
Get info about the connected knowledge base.
Start from a ready-made SOP. Keep it alive here.
Download any of our 284 standard operating procedure templates in Word, PDF, Excel or CSV, no sign-up needed. Then put it in Perfect Wiki so your team can find it and ask about it.

In Settings → AI → MCP Servers → Add Server → Add Remote Server, or directly in ~/.config/zed/settings.json under context_servers. Older guides mention an “Add Custom Server” button — the current label is Add Remote Server.
If the server entry has no Authorization header, Zed starts the OAuth flow automatically: sign in to Perfect Wiki, pick the knowledge base and allow access. Add a header only if you want to use an API token instead.
Zed refers to MCP servers as context servers, which is why the settings key is context_servers. It is the same Model Context Protocol, so the standard Perfect Wiki server works as-is.
Only if you allow it. When you connect with OAuth you choose read-only (wiki:read) or read & write (wiki:write) on the consent screen. Legacy API tokens always have full access to their knowledge base. Most MCP clients also ask for your confirmation before running a tool that writes.
Yes. Each connection is scoped to one knowledge base, so add the server once per knowledge base and give each a unique name — for example perfect-wiki-hr and perfect-wiki-engineering. The assistant can then search or update a specific knowledge base by name.
The Perfect Wiki MCP server only forwards the requests Zed makes. Tool results — the pages and answers it fetches — are passed to the model as part of the conversation and handled under your AI provider's data policy.
The MCP server is included in every Perfect Wiki plan, and the same API rate limits apply. You can try it with the 14-day free trial — no credit card required.
