BankBridge with Zed

2 min read
Add BankBridge to Zed once, then ask it about your real bank accounts, transactions, subscriptions, and investment holdings. Every question live-fetches in real time — nothing is cached. $5/mo per connected bank.

Setup

Paste the config below into ~/.config/zed/settings.json. Swap the placeholder key for your real bbk_ key from your dashboard.

{
  "context_servers": {
    "bankbridge": {
      "source": "custom",
      "command": null,
      "url": "https://bankbridge.money/api/mcp",
      "headers": {
        "Authorization": "Bearer bbk_your_api_key_here"
      }
    }
  }
}

The full doc page for Zedauto-fills your real key when you’re signed in.

Three prompts to try

  • “List my bank accounts and current balances.”
  • “How much did I spend on food this month?”
  • “What are my recurring subscriptions?”

If it doesn’t work

Check the Zed doc page for the Troubleshooting section. 90% of first-time failures are either a missing Bearer prefix (note the space) or a placeholder key that didn’t get replaced with a real one.
