By default, Codecov will only show git diff coverage checks on a PR but it looks like Lobechat turned this off since the default is off. Check this guide, Set project coverage checks on a pull request, for more info.
For the server and the app, it has the flags, I found this documentation for flags on codecov.
You can group coverage reports based on type of tests or sub-projects/teams based on flags.
Flags allow you to isolate and categorize coverage reports for different tests and features in your project. This is particularly helpful if:
1. You have multiple types of tests (e.g., unit, integration, frontend, backend, etc) AND/OR
2. You’re employing a monorepo setup where you’d like to encapsulate each project’s test coverage independently.
This pull request has Codecov report. Here is an example of reports with flags.
