    Enrich a list of known accounts is surfaced wherever your client lets you attach context. It is context to attach, not an action to run.

  3. 04

    If it does not appear, check that InstaVision — Instagram niche discovery is connected and that you are looking at its resources rather than its tools.

Merge this into your existing settings object — do not replace the file. Zed docs

Set these first

InstaVision — Instagram niche discovery will not start until these are set, so it never reaches Zed.

Same resource, other clients

Read from the server itself, by connecting to it and calling resources/list on 4 October 2026. A listing does not declare its resources, so asking is the only way to know them, and this is what the server actually offers rather than what its listing claims. Names only are stored; connect the server for each resource's type and contents.
