Document how to register self-hosted GitHub/GitLab/Bitbucket instances
via git_hosting_providers setting so permalinks and issue links resolve.
Release Notes:
- Added documentation on how to register self-hosted
GitHub/GitLab/Bitbucket instances via the `git_hosting_providers`
setting. This ensures permalinks and issue links can be resolved for
these instances.
### Description
The `installing-extensions.md` guide was missing the directory path for
the Windows platform. It currently only lists the paths for macOS and
Linux. This PR adds the correct path for Windows users
(`%LOCALAPPDATA%\zed\extensions`).

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.

1. Adds two new settings which allow customizing the set of regexes used
to identify path hyperlinks in terminal
1. Fixes path hyperlinks for paths containing unicode emoji and
punctuation, for example, `mojo.🔥`
1. Fixes path hyperlinks for Windows verbatim paths, for example,
`\\?\C:\Over\here.rs`.
1. Improves path hyperlink performance, especially for terminals with a
lot of content
1. Replaces existing custom hard-coded default path hyperlink parsing
logic with a set of customizable default regexes
## New settings
(from default.json)
### terminal.path_hyperlink_regexes
Regexes used to identify paths for hyperlink navigation. Supports
optional named capture
groups `path`, `line`, `column`, and `link`. If none of these are
present, the entire match
is the hyperlink target. If `path` is present, it is the hyperlink
target, along with `line`
and `column` if present. `link` may be used to customize what text in
terminal is part of the
hyperlink. If `link` is not present, the text of the entire match is
used. If `line` and
`column` are not present, the default built-in line and column suffix
processing is used
which parses `line:column` and `(line,column)` variants. The default
value handles Python
diagnostics and common path, line, column syntaxes. This can be extended
or replaced to
handle specific scenarios. For example, to enable support for
hyperlinking paths which
contain spaces in rust output,
```
[
"\\s+(-->|:::|at) (?<link>(?<path>.+?))(:$|$)",
"\\s+(Compiling|Checking|Documenting) [^(]+\\((?<link>(?<path>.+))\\)"
],
```
could be used. Processing stops at the first regex with a match, even if
no link is
produced which is the case when the cursor is not over the hyperlinked
text. For best
performance it is recommended to order regexes from most common to least
common. For
readability and documentation, each regex may be an array of strings
which are collected
into one multi-line regex string for use in terminal path hyperlink
detection.
### terminal.path_hyperlink_timeout_ms
Timeout for hover and Cmd-click path hyperlink discovery in
milliseconds. Specifying a
timeout of `0` will disable path hyperlinking in terminal.
## Performance
This PR fixes terminal to only search the hovered line for hyperlinks
and adds a benchmark. Before this fix, hyperlink detection grows
linearly with terminal content, with this fix it is proportional only to
the hovered line. The gains come from replacing
`visible_regex_match_iter`, which searched all visible lines, with code
that only searches the line hovered on (including if the line is
wrapped).
Local benchmark timings (terminal with 500 lines of content):
||main|this PR|Δ|

| rust_hyperlink_benchmark | 1.2 ms | 11 µs | -99.1% |
| ls_hyperlink_benchmark | 1.3 ms | 7 µs | -99.5% |
Release Notes:
- terminal: New settings to allow customizing the set of regexes used to
identify path hyperlinks in terminal
- terminal: Fixed terminal path hyperlinks for paths containing unicode
punctuation and emoji, e.g. mojo.🔥
- terminal: Fixed path hyperlinks for Windows verbatim paths, for
example, `\\?\C:\Over\here.rs`
- terminal: Improved terminal hyperlink performance, especially for
terminals with a lot of content visible
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": {
"my-remote-server": {

Returning the favor from @rgbkrk in
https://github.com/posit-dev/air/pull/445
I noticed the R docs around Air are a bit incorrect / out of date. I'll
make a few more comments inline. Feel free to take over for any other
edits.
Release Notes:
- Improved R language support documentation
Closes#4533 (partly at least)
Release Notes:
- Added `project_panel.sort_mode` option to control explorer file sort
(directories first, mixed, files first)
## Summary
Adds three sorting modes for the project panel to give users more
control over how files and directories are displayed:
- **`directories_first`** (default): Current behaviour - directories
grouped before files
- **`mixed`**: Files and directories sorted together alphabetically
- **`files_first`**: filed grouped before directories
## Motivation
Users coming from different editors and file managers have different
expectations for file sorting. Some prefer directories grouped at the
top (traditional), while others prefer the macOS Finder-style mixed
sorting where "Apple1/", "apple2.tsx" and "Apple3/" appear
alphabetically mixed together.
### Screenshots
New sort options in settings:

### Agent usage
Copilot-cli/claude-code/codex-cli helped out a lot. I'm not from a rust
background, but really wanted this solved, and it gave me a chance to
play with some of the coding agents I'm not permitted to use for work
stuff

According to
[microsoft/vscode#254689](https://github.com/microsoft/vscode/issues/254689),
the json.schemastore.org domain has been deprecated and should now use
www.schemastore.org (or schemastore.org) instead.
This PR updates all occurrences of the old domain within the Zed
codebase,
including code, documentation, and configuration files.
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.

Update how the editor's `select_*` methods work in order to respect the
`search.case_sensitive` setting, or to be overriden by the
`BufferSearchBar` search options.
- Update both the `SearchableItem` and `SearchableItemHandle` traits
with a new `set_search_is_case_sensitive` method that allows callers
to set the case sensitivity of the search
- Update the `BufferSearchBar` to leverage
`SearchableItemHandle.set_search_is_case_sensitive` in order to sync
its case sensitivity options with the searchable item
- Update the implementation of the `SearchableItem` trait for `Editor`
so as to store the argument provided to the
`set_search_is_case_sensitive` method
- Update the way search queries are built by `Editor` so as to rely on
`SearchableItem.set_search_is_case_sensitive` argument, if not `None`,
or default to the editor's `search.case_sensitive` settings
Closes#41070
Release Notes:
- Improved the "Select Next Occurrence", "Select Previous Occurrence"
and "Select All Occurrences" actions in order to respect the case
sensitivity search settings

Similar to #42246, we'd like to avoid having Vercel on the critical
path.
https://zed.dev/install.sh is served from Cloudflare by intercepting a
route on that page, so this makes the shell-based install flow vercel independent.
Release Notes:
- `./script/install.sh` will now fetch assets via
`https://cloud.zed.dev/`
instead of `https://zed.dev`. As before it will redirect to GitHub
releases
to complete the download.
I ran [proselint](https://github.com/amperser/proselint) (recommended by
cURL author [Daniel
Stenberg](https://daniel.haxx.se/blog/2022/09/22/taking-curl-documentation-quality-up-one-more-notch/))
against all the `.md` files in the codebase to see if I could fix some
easy typos.
The tool is noisier than I would like and picking up the overrides to
the default config in a `.proselintrc.json` was much harder than I
expected.
There's many other small nits [1] that I believe are best left to your
docs czar whenever they want to consider incorporating a tool like this
into big releases or CI, but these seemed like small wins for now to
open a conversation about a tool like proselint.
---
[1]: Such nits include
- incosistent 1 or 2 spaces
- "color" vs "colour"
- ab/use of `very`
- awkward or superfluous phrasing.

## Summary
Adds explanations for what each type of scrollbar indicator visually
represents in the editor.
## Description
This PR addresses the issue where users didn't understand what the
colored marks on the scrollbar mean. The existing documentation
explained how to toggle each type of mark on/off, but didn't explain
what they actually represent.
This adds a brief, clear explanation after each scrollbar indicator
setting describing what that indicator shows (e.g., "Git diff indicators
appear as colored marks showing lines that have been added, modified, or
deleted compared to the git HEAD").
## Fixes
Closes#31794
## Test Plan
- Documentation follows the existing style and format of
`docs/src/configuring-zed.md`
- Each explanation is concise and immediately follows the setting
description
- Language is clear and user-friendly
Release Notes:
- N/A
- Clarify about first-party supported features in external agents
- Create new section for selection as context for higher visibility
- Add keybindings for agent profiles
- Fix outdated setting using `assistant` instead of `agent`
- Add keybinding for accessing the rules library
Release Notes:
- N/A
This brings the documentation on Java in line with the much changed
