Give your AI agent the same tools you use. Try JetBrains IDEs free ? https://jb.gg/IDEs-JetBrains

Some developers say AI killed the IDE. The agent writes the code and runs the tests, so why not just live in the terminal? On small projects that works fine. But in the terminal your agent is mostly coding blind: it searches through text and hopes it lands on the right thing. Your IDE actually understands the code. So I tested what happens when the agent gets the same tools you do, first on a small Python project and then on a real production codebase of about 220,000 lines.
