Zed Editor Integration

A high-performance, open-source modern code editor with a powerful built-in AI assistant, connecting to Calgine Tokens through a custom OpenAI-compatible endpoint.

Zed is a high-performance modern code editor built in Rust by the team behind Atom and Tree-sitter. It ships with an AI assistant panel that supports custom OpenAI-compatible endpoints, giving you direct access to all models on the Calgine Tokens platform.

Prerequisites

1. Sign up at the Calgine Tokens Console.
2. Go to Workspace → API Tokens, click "Add Token", and copy the API Key once created (starts with sk-).

Setting	Value
api_url	https://api.calgine.com.cn/v1
api_key	The API token you created in the console

Installation & Configuration

1. Install Zed: Visit the Zed website to download and install the version for your system.

2. Open settings: Press Cmd/Ctrl + , to open Zed's settings.json file.

3. Configure the OpenAI-compatible endpoint: Add the following to settings.json:

   {
     "language_models": {
       "openai": {
         "api_url": "https://api.calgine.com.cn/v1",
         "api_key": "sk-your-token"
       }
     }
   }

4. Select a model: In Zed's AI panel (usually in the right sidebar), click the model name and choose a model available on Calgine Tokens, such as gpt-4o.

Verify the Setup

Open the AI assistant panel and send any message (e.g., "Explain the code in the current file"). A normal response means the integration is working.
