Can I run tests and debug code using this skill?

Yes, you can list all available run configurations, execute them, and even toggle debugger breakpoints directly through Claude commands.

Does this skill support other JetBrains IDEs like WebStorm?

Yes, it is compatible with most JetBrains IDEs that support the MCP Server plugin and share the common IntelliJ platform API.

How do I connect Claude to my IntelliJ IDEA instance?

You must have the JetBrains MCP Server plugin enabled in your IDE and the MCP server correctly configured in your Claude Desktop or Docker MCP Gateway settings.

How do I troubleshoot connection issues?

Ensure the MCP Server plugin is active in IDEA, check that the port matches your configuration, and use the '/idea status' command to verify the connection.

What are the advantages of using IDE Scopes with this skill?

Scopes allow you to create logical groupings of files (like 'Backend' or 'Tests'). This skill can automatically generate these scopes and assign colors to help you navigate project structures more efficiently.
