Zoxide Doctor Overview

The zoxide-doctor MCP server diagnoses local zoxide installation and shell setup through one read-only MCP tool. It checks PATH entries for zoxide and optional fzf, verifies shell initialization output, and returns a machine-readable JSON report with relevant zoxide.org guidance. Set `scan_config` to true when the caller also wants conventional shell-profile paths inspected. Use it when an MCP client needs to investigate zoxide setup without changing files or shell state.

Primary Use Cases for Zoxide Doctor:
  • Diagnose missing zoxide or fzf commands on PATH
  • Verify zoxide shell initialization output
  • Inspect conventional shell profiles for setup issues
  • Return structured zoxide troubleshooting data to an MCP client
