JetBrains announced that IntelliJ IDEA is going LSP, meaning its Java and Kotlin intelligence will be available in VS Code, Cursor, and agentic flows. The announcement, published on the JetBrains blog, indicates that the company is extending its code analysis engine to other development environments. This move allows developers using VS Code or Cursor to benefit from JetBrains' language support without leaving their preferred editor. Additionally, the integration with agentic flows suggests that AI coding agents will be able to leverage JetBrains' intelligence. The blog post does not provide specific technical details or release dates, but it signals a significant shift in JetBrains' strategy from a standalone IDE to a provider of language intelligence across platforms.
