    Air in JetBrains IDEs

    On November 11, 2026, JetBrains shipped Air in JetBrains IDEs with the 2026.3 release. Air brings coding agents into the IDE, with one place to track their progress, review their changes, and send feedback. Through the IDE's MCP server and built-in skills, agents can check inspections, run build and run configurations, query databases, and use the IDE's own refactorings. In IntelliJ IDEA and CLion, they can also drive the debugger. Sessions across projects show which agents are working, which need input, and which have unread results, and notifications say when an agent needs you. Each agent can use its own local Git worktree so parallel sessions do not collide. Worktrees that agents create on their own are not tracked in Air yet. A preset saves the agent, model, and instructions for a type of task. Air works with agents such as Junie, Codex, Claude Agent, and GitHub Copilot, and connects to other compatible agents through ACP. You can bring compatible agents already installed on the machine or add them from the registry, then choose a model and connect a subscription. A paid JetBrains AI subscription is not required. Depending on the setup, access can be an existing provider subscription, an API key, or JetBrains AI. Claude Pro or Max can be used with Claude Code in Air's terminal surface, which opens as a full-screen IDE tab. When an agent finishes, the review panel shows what the session changed. Code Notes on specific lines can request changes or ask questions and be sent back to the session with the code context. Code Notes also work with Air's terminal agents. Supported agents can use native JetBrains IDE capabilities, including debugging, profiling, database management, and semantic code search. Code completion keeps working in the editor and does not count against the JetBrains AI quota. Next edit suggestions work with Air when you sign in with a JetBrains AI subscription or GitHub sign-in.
