Set up

Add Notion to Zed in four steps

Admins approve the server once. Everyone in Zed then gets it through the same governed connection.

  1. 1

    Approve Notion in Runlayer

    Add Notion from the catalog and choose who can use it and which of its tools are allowed.

  2. 2

    Connect Zed to Runlayer

    Users add the Runlayer Plugin to Zed by following Runlayer’s setup guide. Zed reaches Notion’s 48 tools through the Runlayer Plugin’s search and execute tools instead of listing each one.

  3. 3

    Sign in to Notion

    Sign in the way Notion requires. Runlayer holds the credentials so they stay out of the client’s configuration.

  4. 4

    Use Notion from Zed

    Notion’s approved tools appear in Zed. Every call is checked against policy and recorded.

Tools

48 Notion tools in Zed

Runlayer policy decides which of these Zed users can call. 5 read data only and 1 can change or delete data.

  • AI search

    Notion ai search.

  • Check MCP next steps

    Finish all Notion tool calls needed for the current request, then call at most once with no arguments.

    Mark an existing Notion page as a skill without changing its content.

  • Create attachment

    Create an attachment and upload it to Notion.

  • Create comment

    Add a comment to a page or specific content.

  • Create database

    Creates a new Notion database using SQL DDL syntax, or a canonical typed database for tasks, projects, or skills.

Control

What Runlayer can see and stop in Zed

Some controls apply to every client at the gateway. Others depend on what Zed exposes to Runlayer.

  • Gateway policy (available)

    Every Notion call from Zed passes through Runlayer, where your policies can allow, alert, mask, or block it.

  • Audit trail (available)

    Each call is recorded with the user, Zed as the client, the tool, and the policy and scanner decisions.

  • Native enforcement adapter (not available)

    Runlayer has no device-side adapter for Zed yet, so control happens at the gateway.
