Good question! I'm not too familiar with Zed, but here's my high-level guess from reading the website: we don't currently integrate with Zed, but we probably could if it supports remote kernels (the docs I found at https://zed.dev/docs/repl weren't specific about it).

One nice thing about our VSCode extension is that it's not just a remote kernel - our extension also lets you see what kernels you have and other details, so we'd need to write something like it for Zed. We probably wouldn't do this unless there's a lot of demand.

By the way, VSCode also supports the # %% repl spec and Moonglow does work with that (though we haven't optimized for it as much as we've optimized for the notebooks).

My impression is that if it shows up by running the command Jupyter kernelspec list then it will work in zed out of the box. Does it show up on this list?
I don't think so, if that jupyter command just runs against your local servers. We register the moonglow remote servers with VSCode through the extension, and my guess is we'd need to do something similar with Zed.
