Connect explainx.ai to Continue
Add explainx.ai to Continue's config so it shows up in every assistant.
Continue centralizes its settings in a single YAML config.yaml shared across its VS Code and JetBrains extensions, using an mcpServers list rather than a JSON object. Declaring explainx.ai there once makes it available in every assistant mode Continue supports.
Setup steps
- 01Open your Continue config.yaml (Continue: Open Config from the command palette).
- 02Add an mcpServers entry named explainx using the streamable-http type.
- 03Save — Continue opens a browser tab to complete explainx.ai sign-in.
- 04Reference the explainx tools from chat.

Does the same config.yaml work for Continue in JetBrains too?
Yes — Continue's config.yaml is shared across its VS Code and JetBrains extensions, so an explainx entry added once is available in both.
