Why we included this project
JetBrains built this MCP proxy to let external assistants such as Claude Desktop or VS Code operate directly on an IDE, using a companion plugin to manage the connection from IntelliJ-backed editors like PyCharm or WebStorm. Since version 2025.2 the same capability ships inside every IntelliJ-based IDE, now served over SSE with a JVM-based STDIO proxy, so this repository is deprecated and new installs should rely on the IDE's built-in MCP support instead of this package. For teams running older versions, the project is still worth reading as a reference for how JetBrains structured MCP connectivity, including configuration for host, port, and external client access, and as a baseline when troubleshooting legacy setups.
