MCP Server
Starting with version 2025.2, PyCharm comes with an integrated MCP server, allowing external clients such as Claude Desktop, Cursor, Codex, VS Code, and others to access tools provided by the IDE. This provides users with the ability to control and interact with JetBrains IDEs without leaving their application of choice.
Enable the MCP Server plugin
This functionality relies on the MCP Server plugin, which is bundled and enabled in PyCharm by default. If the relevant features are not available, make sure that you did not disable the plugin.
Press Ctrl+Alt+S to open settings and then select .
Open the Installed tab, find the MCP Server plugin, and select the checkbox next to the plugin name.
External client setup
For external clients like Claude Code, Claude Desktop, Cursor, VS Code, Codex, and Windsurf, configuration can be performed automatically:
In the main menu, go to .
Click Enable MCP Server.
In the Clients Auto-Configuration section, click Auto-Configure for each client you want to set up for use with the MCP server. This will automatically update their JSON configuration.

Restart your client for configuration to take effect.
If you want to connect to the MCP server from any other client, you will need to perform manual configuration:
In the Manual Client Configuration section, click either Copy SSE Config, Copy Stdio Config, or Copy HTTP Stream Config depending on the connection type.

Paste the copied configuration into your client's settings or configuration file.
Restart your client for configuration to take effect.
Execute actions without confirmation
The MCP server allows connected external clients to execute terminal commands or run configurations in the IDE without prompting for user confirmation each time.
To enable this mode:
In the main menu, go to .
In the Command execution section, enable the Run shell commands or run configurations without confirmation (brave mode) setting.
Click Apply.
Supported tools
The MCP Server exposes a set of tools that allow external clients to interact with your IDE and project – for example, to analyze code, modify files, run configurations, or execute terminal commands.
You can view and manage the full list of available tools in . From this page, you can enable or disable specific tools depending on your workflow and preferences.
Below you can find the list of tools provided by the MCP server.
