Other MCP clients

Rings is a standard remote MCP server, so any client that supports Streamable HTTP can connect. The pattern is always the same: give it the URL, then sign in.

https://production-api.joinrings.com/mcp

Zed

Open MCP settings

Go to Settings → AI → MCP Servers and click Add Server in the page header.

Choose Add Remote Server

Enter rings as the name and the server URL above.

Authenticate

Save. With no Authorization header configured, Zed prompts you to authenticate through the standard MCP OAuth flow.

Equivalent settings.json entry:

{
  "context_servers": {
    "rings": {
      "url": "https://production-api.joinrings.com/mcp"
    }
  }
}

A green status indicator on Settings → AI → MCP Servers means the server is connected.

Cline, Roo Code, and similar VS Code extensions

Open the extension’s MCP Servers panel, choose Configure MCP Servers or Remote Servers, and add:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "rings": {
      "type": "streamableHttp",
      "url": "https://production-api.joinrings.com/mcp"
    }
  }
}

Choose Add Extension → Remote Extension (Streaming HTTP), name it rings, and paste the server URL.

Anything else

If the client only accepts raw JSON, the two shapes below cover nearly every implementation. Use whichever key names your client documents.

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "rings": {
      "url": "https://production-api.joinrings.com/mcp",
      "headers": {
        "x-api-key": "YOUR_RINGS_API_KEY"
      }
    }
  }
}

{
  "servers": {
    "rings": {
      "type": "http",
      "url": "https://production-api.joinrings.com/mcp"
    }
  }
}

To sanity-check the server outside any client, run the MCP Inspector:

npx @modelcontextprotocol/inspector

Set Transport type to Streamable HTTP, enter the Rings URL, run Quick OAuth Flow, and list the tools. This also gives you an access token you can paste into API-level integrations.
