Save the file and restart Zed.

istanbul_coverage is surfaced wherever your client lets you attach context. It is context to attach, not an action to run.

If it does not appear, check that Istanbul MCP 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
Same resource, other clients
Read from the server itself, by connecting to it and calling resources/list on 25 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.
