We recommend the JetBrains plugin as the preferred way of using Serena,
especially for users of JetBrains IDEs.
How it works:
```{admonition} *Note:* The plugin is a language intelligence backend for the Serena MCP server.
:class: note
It is *not* a UI extension for direct agent interaction (like Copilot) or anything of the sort.
You still interact with your regular client – be it external to your IDE (like Claude Code) or internal (like JetBrains AI Assistant) –
and connect it to the Serena MCP server.
The plugin simply enables the Serena MCP server to directly leverage capabilities of your JetBrains IDE!
```
**How it works:**
1. Install the plugin in your JetBrains IDE
2. Configure Serena to use the JetBrains language backend (see [below](configure-jetbrains))
3. Open the project you want to work on in your JetBrains IDE and activate it in Serena (see [below](jetbrains-workflow))
