Opening a temporary file in a the current Zed instance via EDITOR or VISUAL

[theherk]

I use neovim as my EDITOR. This works well, but I was poking around to see if I could in some cases use export VISUAL="zed -w -a $PWD" for a given instance, so that when I use c-x c-e in bash or m-e in fish, I could have this open in the current terminal input in the current Zed instance. But this always seems to open a new blank instance, probably because the path of the temporary file isn't within the current instances project root, but I don't know.

Maybe I'm doing something trivial wrong. Is this possible? Does anybody else have this working?

This actually does work with zed I have discovered. The issue was that I mostly use Zed Preview, so it isn't another instance, but actually just another program, and that wasn't apparent. Nevertheless, unfortunately export VISUAL='zed --zed "/Applications/Zed Preview.app" -w' does not work. I haven't sorted out why. It does open the instance of Zed Preview, but without the file.
