Cursor uses the same mcpServers schema as Claude Desktop. Project config wins over global.

~/.continue/config.json

{
  "mcpServers": [
    {
      "name": "neondatabase-agent-skills",
      "command": "git",
      "args": [
        "clone",

        "~/.claude/skills/neondatabase-agent-skills"
      ]
    }
  ]
}

Continue uses an array of server objects rather than a map.

~/.config/zed/settings.json

{
  "context_servers": {
    "neondatabase-agent-skills": {
      "command": {
        "path": "git",
        "args": [
          "clone",
          "https://github.com/neondatabase/agent-skills",
          "~/.claude/skills/neondatabase-agent-skills"
        ]
      }
    }
  }
}

Add to context_servers. Zed hot-reloads on save.

claude mcp add neondatabase-agent-skills -- git clone https://github.com/neondatabase/agent-skills ~/.claude/skills/neondatabase-agent-skills

One-liner. Verify with claude mcp list. Remove with claude mcp remove.
