    Zed prompts you to sign in to PixelMCP the first time it connects.

Things to try

  • “Make an illustration for the 404 page in our brand colors and save it to public/404.png.”

Menus change often. If a label here doesn't match what you see, look for “Connectors”, “MCP” or “Integrations” in Zed's settings, or check Zed Industries's docs.
