Connect JetBrains IDEs to your task board

Junie writes the code; Weft keeps the receipts.

To connect JetBrains IDEs to a task board, add Weft — a task board with an MCP server — to JetBrains IDEs and sign in once. It takes about three minutes and is free for 50 tasks. After that, JetBrains IDEs creates, moves and finishes tasks on your board when you ask.

Weft is the AI task manager for solo founders and small teams.

IntelliJ IDEA, PyCharm, WebStorm, GoLand, Rider and the rest ship Junie, the JetBrains coding agent. Give Junie the board and its plans stop living in one IDE window: you see what it claimed, what it finished, and what it skipped.

JetBrains IDEs MCP setup

JetBrains IDEs MCP docs ↗

Connect through Junie — it runs the OAuth flow in your browser. AI Assistant’s own MCP settings accept the same URL but do not perform the OAuth handshake, so Weft belongs in Junie’s mcp.json. For one project only, use .junie/mcp/mcp.json in the repository root.

  1. 01

    Create a free Weft account.

    Weft is free for 50 tasks. Pro from $5/seat/month billed yearly.

    Sign up — 60 seconds
  2. 02

    Add Weft to your JetBrains IDEs config.

    ~/.junie/mcp/mcp.json
    {
  "mcpServers": {
    "weft": {
      "url": "https://letsweft.com/api/mcp"
    }
  }
}
    MCP endpoint
    https://letsweft.com/api/mcp
  3. 03

    Complete the OAuth popup.

    On first use, JetBrains IDEs opens a browser window so you can authorize with your Weft account. Sign in once — the client remembers you after that.

  4. 04

    Verify it works.

    Settings → Tools → Junie → MCP Settings lists weft, at first with "Authorization required" — choose Authorize and sign in. Then ask Junie: "what's on my board?".

Try these prompts

Everything below works once you’re connected — JetBrains IDEs picks the right Weft tool on its own.

  • “What's on my board right now?”
  • “Create a task for each follow-up in your plan before you start.”
  • “Move the flaky-test fix to Done — it is merged.”
  • “What did I finish this sprint?”

JetBrains IDEs and MCP: common questions

Does JetBrains IDEs support MCP?

Yes. JetBrains IDEs connects to remote MCP servers, and Weft is one: a single endpoint, https://letsweft.com/api/mcp. You sign in once in the browser; there is no API key to copy.

Where do I add an MCP server in JetBrains IDEs?

In ~/.junie/mcp/mcp.json. The snippet in step 2 is the whole Weft entry.

Is Weft free to use with JetBrains IDEs?

Yes, for up to 50 tasks, with no credit card. Pro removes the limit.

What can JetBrains IDEs do on my Weft board?

Create, update, move and complete tasks, plan and run sprints, sort work into projects and search across all of it: 32 MCP tools in all.
