JetBrains Junie is a coding agent available in JetBrains IDEs, a terminal, and headless in CI/CD scripts. It supports models from OpenAI, Anthropic, Google, and xAI, and the CLI can use provider API keys directly. Advanced Plan Mode organizes requirements, design, and delivery stages before code changes; plans can be edited and committed in .junie/plans. Users can review and approve key actions, while the CLI asks for approval before sensitive actions unless brave mode is enabled or an action is allowed. Remote Control supports asynchronous CLI runs monitored through a web app. Junie also supports persistent project guidelines, Agent Skills packages, and slash commands shared across CLI and IDE through ACP. Its CLI runs on Linux, macOS, and Windows, and can run tasks from GitHub issues and pull requests or GitLab issues and merge requests through the listed automation integrations. Free to Start includes 5 AI credits, with AI usage billed separately. AI Pro costs 8.33 USD per month per user.
Who it is for
Junie suits developers using supported JetBrains IDEs or working from a terminal, including teams running coding tasks in CI/CD. Its planning, approval, and project-guideline features may suit users who want control over how coding tasks proceed.
