About
joa23-claude-zed-follow is a Claude Code plugin that automatically opens files in the Zed editor as Claude Code works through your repository. developers who pair a terminal or IDE-embedded Claude session with Zed benefit because they no longer manually hunt paths the agent mentions. Use it during active build sessions whenever you want visual follow-along—see diffs, skim surrounding code, and jump edits without copy-pasting file paths. The bundle contains one plugin keyed to auto-open, follow, and read/edit sync behavior. It is not a codegen framework or test runner; it is dev ergonomics that tightens the loop between agent actions and human oversight. Confidence is moderate because catalog metadata emphasizes behavior keywords rather than deep install docs, but the value proposition is narrow and clear for Zed users on macOS-style setups.

What it does
Install when you use Zed as your editor and want files to open automatically as Claude Code reads and edits them so you can follow along in real time.
Who is it for?
Best when you standardize on Zed and want a passive mirror of Claude Code file activity during implementation.
Skip if: Skip if you're on VS Code or Cursor-only workflows and do not use Zed, or anyone needing codegen logic rather than editor sync.
What you get
After install, Zed follows Claude Code’s read and edit targets so you inspect changes in the editor the moment the agent works on them.
- Automatic Zed tab or buffer opens aligned to Claude Code file operations
- Lower-friction oversight during agent-driven edits
