JetBrains Air
JetBrains Air is one system for building software with coding agents. Its own page says it works with agents you already use, in JetBrains IDEs, the web, a CLI and mobile, and adds a team layer on top.
What JetBrains Air does
- Works with agents you already use, such as Claude Agent, Codex, Junie and Copilot, and others you connect through ACP.
- Keeps several projects open at once, each with its own sessions, and tracks unread updates, changed files and outgoing commits.
- Lets you open diffs from an agent session, validate changes with your IDE tools and comment on specific lines for the agent to act on.
- Lets you bring your own provider subscription or API keys, or use JetBrains AI with credits.
- Adds Air Teams, with shared projects in dedicated cloud environments and automations for code review, release notes and fixes.
What people use it for
Run agents in parallel
Give different agents different tasks and review each result in its own session.
Review in your IDE
Open an agent’s diff, run your usual checks and leave line comments for the agent.
Automate routine work
Set up an automation for code review or release notes on a trigger such as a merge.
Who it suits
- Developers who use JetBrains IDEs and want to run several coding agents without leaving them.
- Teams that want shared cloud environments and automations for agent tasks.
Plans and access
JetBrains says cloud runs are already available to some customers in its IDEs and the browser, with rollout to the rest over the coming months. Plans, credits and availability change, so read JetBrains’ current terms. Review every change an agent makes before you merge it.
How to start
- 1Open the JetBrains Air page and choose Try Air. Open
- 2Connect one agent you already use.
- 3Give it a small task and open the diff in your IDE.
- 4Run your tests and read the change before you accept it.
