## Notes

- **Zed** has no extension API, so file and selection tracking are polling-based
  (default 1000 ms). See [Architecture](../explanation/architecture.md#zed-polling).
- **Neovim** uses a sidecar process to host the WebSocket server; the attach
  shortcut is configured in the Lua plugin, not inherited from Pi. See
  [Install the Neovim plugin](../how-to/install-neovim.md).
- **Diagnostic Quick Fix** and **auto-install** are VS Code-family features.
- **WSL2** cross-boundary discovery works for all editors that write lock files
  (VS Code-family, Neovim, JetBrains) and for Zed via its Windows database path.
  See [Use Pi × IDE over WSL2](../how-to/use-wsl2.md).
