Connect atbridge.ai to JetBrains IDEs

Este conteúdo não está disponível em sua língua ainda.

Since 2025.2, MCP is a shared AI Assistant feature across the whole JetBrains family — IntelliJ IDEA, PyCharm, WebStorm, GoLand, PhpStorm, RubyMine, CLion, Rider, DataGrip, Android Studio. So one config wires atbridge.ai into all of them at once.

If you haven’t installed atbridge.ai yet, start with Install atbridge.ai. New to how this works? See How your AI connects.

A JetBrains IDE driving atbridge.ai to work the inbox over MCP.

The one-click way

In Thunderbird, open the atbridge.ai extension’s Settings → Connect your AI (MCP). Next to JetBrains IDEs, hit Set up — atbridge writes the config for you. Tick “Allow writes” first if you want the AI to send / draft / edit mail (it’s read-only by default).

Prefer the terminal? Same thing:

atbridge mcp setup --client jetbrains
# add --allow-writes to unlock send / draft / edit

Or add it by hand

JetBrains reads one shared MCP config for every JetBrains IDE:

~/Library/Application Support/JetBrains/AIAssistant/mcp.json

%APPDATA%\JetBrains\AIAssistant\mcp.json

~/.config/JetBrains/AIAssistant/mcp.json

Add the atbridge.ai entry to its mcpServers block:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "atbridge.ai": {
      "command": "atbridge",
      "args": ["mcp"]
    }
  }
}

To let the AI send / draft / edit mail (read-only otherwise), add an env block:

"atbridge.ai": {
  "command": "atbridge",
  "args": ["mcp"],
  "env": { "ATBRIDGE_ALLOW_WRITES": "1" }
}

You can also open this panel from inside any JetBrains IDE at Settings → Tools → AI Assistant → Model Context Protocol (MCP).

Reload & try it

Reload MCP (Settings → Tools → AI Assistant → Model Context Protocol → refresh) or restart the IDE, then ask the AI Assistant:

List the 5 most recent emails in my Thunderbird inbox.

If you see a list, you’re done.
