The update expands the agent roster, adds local model execution, and deepens JVM-language intelligence. Local models in an agentic IDE matter for regulated shops that can't ship source to a vendor endpoint, the same sovereignty pattern Microsoft pushed with Foundry Local.

Released July 22, it brings agentic editing into Microsoft's IDE alongside .NET debugging support for VS Code (JetBrains Blog). Read this as a distribution play, not a feature release. JetBrains is embedding agents where .NET developers already are rather than asking them to s...
Cursor just admitted that code editing isn't the main event anymore. Cursor 3 abandons its VS Code fork entirely. Not an extension. Not a theme. Gone. Rewritten from scratch in Rust and TypeScript as what Anysphere is calling an "agent orchestration platform." The default view...
CLI, IDE extension, macOS app, and Codex Web all sit on the same harness, linked by a bidirectional JSON-RPC-over-stdio process that hosts core threads and translates client requests into Codex operations. Partners have written clients in Go, Python, TypeScript, Swift, and Kot...
105 real repository-level tasks: interpret an issue, navigate the repo, produce a container-verified patch (JetBrains). Claude Code with Opus 4.7 xhigh solved 90 of 105 (85.71%), ahead of JetBrains Junie on Opus 4.7 max and Codex on GPT-5.5 xhigh, tied at 81.9%. What I like ab...
High-performance GraphRAG reimplemented in Rust. Achieves ~200ms query times vs ~500ms for Python equivalents (2.5x faster). Multi-pass gleaning catches 15-25% more entities. SDKs in TypeScript, Python, Rust, Java, Kotlin. For production RAG builders who need speed. GitHub
