This tutorial covers how to add the JetBrains extension to integrate with any JetBrains IDE. While Goose can use the [Developer extension](/docs/mcp/developer-mcp) for developer-centric tasks, the JetBrains extension provides a more integrated and project-aware way to work with code.
## Configuration
**Important**: The configuration steps depend on your IDE version. You can find the version in `[IDE Name] > About` (macOS) or `Help > About` (Windows/Linux).
<Tabs groupId="ideVersion">
<TabItem value="later" label="2025.2 and later" default>
Versions 2025.2 and later have built-in MCP server support and generate a dynamic configuration specific to your IDE instance.
The instructions in this tutorial show how to configure the recommended remote SSE extension. See your IDE's documentation for more details (e.g. [MCP Server](https://www.jetbrains.com/help/idea/mcp-server.html) for IntelliJ IDEA).
:::tip TLDR
<Tabs groupId="interface">
<TabItem value="ui" label="goose Desktop" default>
Use `Add custom extension` in Settings → Extensions to add a `Server-Sent Events (SSE)` extension type with your IDE-specific SSE config.

<TabItem value="cli" label="goose CLI">
Use `goose configure` to add a `Remote Extension (SSE)` extension type with your IDE-specific SSE config.

Configure the extension using your IDE's built-in MCP server support:
1. Get your IDE-specific config:
1. Go to `Settings > Tools > MCP Server` in your IDE
2. If needed, click `Enable MCP Server` to enable the MCP server
3. Click `Copy SSE Config`
4. Click `OK` to save your changes and start the server
5. Copy the `url` value from the config
2. Add the JetBrains extension to Goose, replacing "YOUR_IDE_SPECIFIC_URL" in the instructions with the URL you copied:
<Tabs groupId="interface">
<TabItem value="ui" label="goose Desktop" default>
1. Click the <PanelLeft className="inline" size={16} /> button in the top-left to open the sidebar
2. Click `Extensions` on the sidebar
3. Click `Add custom extension`
4. On the `Add custom extension` modal, enter the following:
- **Extension Name**: JetBrains
- **Type**: Server-Sent Events (SSE)
- **Endpoint**: YOUR_IDE_SPECIFIC_URL
5. Click `Add Extension` to save the extension
6. Navigate to the chat

**Required Setup**
Add the [MCP Server plugin](https://plugins.jetbrains.com/plugin/26071-mcp-server) to your IDE.

:::info
Note that you'll need [Node.js](https://nodejs.org/) installed on your system to run this command, as it uses `npx`.

Configure the extension using the MCP Server plugin and proxy server:
1. Add the [MCP Server plugin](https://plugins.jetbrains.com/plugin/26071-mcp-server) to your IDE.
2. Add the JetBrains extension to Goose:
<Tabs groupId="interface">
<TabItem value="ui" label="goose Desktop" default>

## Example Usage
In this example, I'm going to upgrade a Java project to the latest LTS version.
:::info LLM
Anthropic's Claude 4 Sonnet was used for this task.
:::
<Tabs groupId="interface">
<TabItem value="ui" label="goose Desktop" default>
1. Open [IntelliJ](https://www.jetbrains.com/idea/download) (JetBrains' Java and Kotlin IDE)
2. Open a new session in Goose Desktop
:::note
You will interact with two separate apps: the Goose Desktop app and the IntelliJ IDE.
:::
</TabItem>
<TabItem value="cli" label="goose CLI">
1. Open [IntelliJ](https://www.jetbrains.com/idea/download) (JetBrains' Java and Kotlin IDE)
2. Open a terminal within your IDE and start a new Goose session:
```sh
goose session
```
</TabItem>
</Tabs>
:::tip
When using Goose to refactor code, it's recommended to commit your code to version control _before_ making changes. This way, you have a clean snapshot to compare against, making it easy to review Gooses modifications, revert if needed, and track improvements.

### Goose Prompt
```
using the JetBrains IDE tools, upgrade this project to use the latest Java LTS version and refactor the codebase to use newer Java features where beneficial.
```
After 2 minutes, Goose was done with the upgrade! 🎉
### Goose Output
```md
I'll make several improvements to modernize this codebase to use Java 21 (latest LTS) features. Here are the changes I'll implement:
1. Update the `pom.xml` to use Java 21
2. Use newer Java features
[... code changes ...]
Here's a summary of the modernization changes made:
1. `pom.xml`:
- Set Java version to 21
- Enabled preview features
- Updated all dependencies to their latest stable versions
2. `AccountsOverviewPage.java`:
- Made the class `final` since it extends the sealed `Page` class
- Updated stream collection to use `.toList()` instead of `collect(Collectors.toList())`
- Made fields final for better immutability
3. `Page.java`:
- Converted to a sealed class
- Restricted which classes can extend it using `permits`
- Made fields protected and final where appropriate
- Added pattern matching for exception handling
- Implemented Optional for null safety
- Used String Templates for error messages
- Added functional programming concepts with Supplier
- Enhanced error handling with specific exception types
4. `LoginComponent.java`:
- Added a private record for credentials
- Implemented pattern matching with record patterns
- Made fields final for better immutability
5. `AccountTests.java`:
- Implemented structured concurrency using `StructuredTaskScope`
- Used parallel execution for UI and API tasks
- Improved error handling with structured task management
- Used pattern matching and type inference with `var`
6. `BaseTests.java`:
- Implemented structured concurrency for setup tasks
- Improved resource management
- Better exception handling
- Used modern Duration API
7. `APIUtil.java`:
- Implemented String Templates (Java 21 preview feature)
- Used modern text blocks
8. `Customers.java`:
- Added sealed interface for customer types
- Implemented pattern matching for switch expressions
- Added pattern matching for instanceof
- Enhanced type safety with records
Key modern Java features used:
- String Templates (Java 21 Preview)
- Pattern Matching for switch (Java 21)
- Sealed Classes and Interfaces (Java 17)
- Records (Java 16)
- Pattern Matching for instanceof (Java 16)
- Text Blocks (Java 15)
- Switch Expressions (Java 14)
The codebase is now using the latest Java LTS version (21) and incorporates many modern Java features that improve:
- Type safety
- Null safety
- Code readability
- Error handling
- Performance
```
Using the JetBrains extension provided several advantages and made it easier for Goose to:
- navigate through the codebase
- track changes
- make consistent modifications across files
- verify the content of files before and after changes
