JetBrains Context
https://www.jetbrains.com/context/
Give agents the codebase knowledge they need.
This repository is the public home of JetBrains Context — not its source code. The jbcontext CLI is developed in a private JetBrains repository and distributed as a prebuilt binary. What you'll find here:
- Agent integrations — skills, subagents, hooks, MCP configuration, and
AGENTS.mdinstructions that wirejbcontextinto coding agents. These are fully open. - Releases and release notes — every
jbcontextrelease is published under Releases. Treat that page as the CLI changelog; the tags there track CLI versions, not the contents of this repo.
The CLI is a separate download — see jetbrains.com/context for installation instructions. Binaries come from download.jetbrains.com, and jbcontext upgrade updates in place.
Skills
| Skill | Description |
|---|---|
context-search | /context-search — run a semantic code search |
context-research | /context-research — deep codebase exploration using jbcontext search and jbcontext history |
context-install | /context-install — install the jbcontext CLI |
org-search | /org-search — experimental org-wide semantic search |
dependency-search | /dependency-search — org-wide dependency usage and upgrade research |
blast-radius | /blast-radius — org-wide impact and consumer analysis |
Agents
Read-only exploration subagents that run several jbcontext search queries in their own context and return file:line references with code snippets — useful for more extensive exploration without cluttering the main thread.
| Agent | Description |
|---|---|
context-explorer (Claude) | agents/claude/context-explorer.md — Claude subagent, invoked via Task(subagent_type='context-explorer', ...). |
context_explorer (Codex) | agents/codex/context-explorer.toml — Codex custom agent (install under ~/.codex/agents/ or .codex/agents/). Codex spawns subagents only when asked, so request it directly, e.g. "use context_explorer to map the auth flow". |

Config for your environment
Replace {MCP_ENDPOINT_URL} with this MCP’s endpoint URL (from its repo or docs above). No API key — you connect directly.
Tool
OS
Config file: ~/.cursor/mcp.json
{
"mcpServers": {
"mcp-server": {
"url": "{MCP_ENDPOINT_URL}"
}
}
}Paste into mcpServers in the config file. Restart Cursor after saving.
If this MCP is also published on mcpchannel.ai, you can subscribe from Browse and use the gateway config there instead.
