JetBrains IDEs MCP Client

By JetBrains · MCP client integration · www.jetbrains.com

JetBrains IDEs from version 2025.2 include an integrated MCP server that allows external clients (e.g., Claude Desktop, Cursor, Codex, VS Code) to interact with the IDE and access its tools. This enables controlling and interacting with JetBrains IDEs from other applications, extending AI assistant capabilities by connecting to external MCP servers.
