Zed via Tokonomix

//What is Zed?

Zed is a high-performance, multiplayer code editor written in Rust. Its built-in Agent panel lets you chat with a model, edit code, and run agentic tasks — and it supports OpenAI API-compatible providers, so the model behind the panel is your choice.

• A native, GPU-accelerated editor with an integrated AI Agent panel.
• Configure any OpenAI-compatible endpoint under language_models.openai_compatible in settings.json.
• List exactly the models you want available, each with its context window.
• Open source, with a strong focus on speed and low latency.

//Why route Zed through Tokonomix?

Zed’s Agent panel is only as good as the model behind it. Tokonomix lets you pick from every major family — and reach for consensus on the high-stakes edits — without leaving your settings.json.

• Expose tokonomix-consensus and any direct slug side by side in the model picker.
• One key, 130+ models — no separate provider accounts.
• Per-call spend caps and hosting_region / origin_country routing for regulated codebases.
• Switch the model on a task from the Agent panel; cost is metered in your dashboard.

//Connect Tokonomix in settings.json

Add an openai_compatible provider named tokonomix with the Tokonomix api_url and the models you want. Then pick a Tokonomix model in the Agent panel.

}

//Verify it works

• Save settings.json and open the Agent panel — the Tokonomix models appear in the picker.
• Enter your key in the provider settings (or via TOKONOMIX_API_KEY) and select Tokonomix Consensus.
• Ask a question and confirm the metered call in your Tokonomix dashboard.
