Features
Zed blends language-server completion with AI edit prediction, inline assistance, agents, and configurable model providers.
- Edit prediction
- Predicts individual or multi-line edits as the developer types and accepts them from the keyboard.
- Prediction providers
- Supports Zed's Zeta model and providers such as GitHub Copilot, Mercury Coder, Codestral, Ollama, and OpenAI-compatible endpoints.
- Partial acceptance
- Lets users accept a complete prediction, the next word, or the next line with configurable keybindings.
- Inline Assistant
- Applies prompt-driven transformations to selected code or terminal text.
- Parallel agents
- Runs multiple agent threads across projects and worktrees from the editor.
- AI privacy
- Zed does not retain prompts or code context by default for Zed-hosted models, subject to documented provider safety-retention exceptions.
