Cursor is now available in JetBrains IDEs
Summary
Cursor is now available in IntelliJ IDEA, PyCharm, WebStorm, and other JetBrains IDEs through the Agent Client Protocol (ACP), extending its agent-driven development experience to developers using those environments. The integration lets users choose frontier models from OpenAI, Anthropic, Google, and Cursor, while Cursor provides a custom-built agent harness for each model. Cursor's secure codebase indexing and semantic search are combined with JetBrains IDE code intelligence and tooling to support work on large enterprise codebases. Users install Cursor ACP from the ACP Registry and authenticate with an existing Cursor account; it is free for users on paid plans, and the release is described as a foundation for deeper JetBrains integrations.
