For JetBrains AI usersControl JetBrains AI from your phone
CodeAgent Mobile is a mobile companion app that lets you control JetBrains AI Assistant and Junie from your phone. Install the CodeAgent Mobile plugin from the JetBrains Marketplace into IntelliJ IDEA, WebStorm, PyCharm, Rider, GoLand, RubyMine, or PhpStorm, pair the IDE with the app, then drive AI prompts from iOS or Android.
How it works
Pair your phone with JetBrains AI once. After that, every prompt and response flows between the two automatically.
- 1
In your JetBrains IDE (IntelliJ IDEA, WebStorm, PyCharm, etc.), open Settings → Plugins → Marketplace.
- 2
Search for "CodeAgent Mobile" and click Install. Restart the IDE when prompted.
- 3
Run the "CodeAgent: Pair Device" action from the command palette (or open the CodeAgent tool window) to get a 6-character code.
- 4
Open CodeAgent Mobile on your phone, tap "Pair Device", scan the QR or enter the code, and confirm.
- 5
Type a prompt in the mobile app — JetBrains AI Assistant or Junie runs it locally in the IDE and streams the response back to your phone.
Why developers use it
A real remote control for your AI coding agent — not a chat fallback.
Real-time streaming
Token-by-token output streams from your laptop straight to your phone — diffs, file lists, and the agent's reasoning all render live.
Secure end-to-end relay
The CodeAgent backend is a thin relay. Your code never leaves your machine, and the AI agent runs with your existing API key or subscription.
Works with your existing setup
No changes to your IDE settings, Anthropic key, GitHub Copilot subscription, or Cursor account. Pair once and start sending prompts.
Approve interactive prompts
When the agent stops to ask y/n or pick an option, the prompt appears on your phone. Tap to approve, reject, or pick — without going back to the keyboard.
