[Bug] Claude Code plugin fails to detect running JetBrains IDE instance
Resolved 💬 2 comments Opened Mar 7, 2026 by EduardoBautista Closed Mar 8, 2026
Bug Description
Official Claude Code plugin for JetBrains IDE is not working. RustRover 2026.1 EAP. I receive a notification in the IDE that says "Cannot launch Claude Code". However, the terminal does open and start Claude Code. But it does not connect to the IDE. Entering "/ide" will return:
Connect to an IDE for integrated development features.
No available IDEs detected. Make sure your IDE has the Claude Code extension or plugin installed and is running.
