Pieces Copilot
With Pieces Copilot inside the Pieces for JetBrains Plugin, you can bring the power of AI into any of your JetBrains IDEs—like PyCharm, IntelliJ IDEA, RubyMine, and more.
With the Pieces Copilot, you can generate intelligent code comments, access AI Quick Actions, and ask variable-context coding questions without leaving your JetBrains IDE.
Generative AI Conversations
If you’re unsure how to implement a specific piece of functionality, stuck on a bug, or simply want a useful answer to something within your codebase, you can use the Pieces Copilot to receive context-aware responses to help you move forward.
The Pieces for JetBrains plugin provides several levels of conversation functionality, each of which is fully integrated with Pieces—you can enable the Long Term Memory Engine (LTM-1) for full, streamlined context across your entire workflow, or open a limited context conversation in the IDEs side view.
Adding Conversation Context
The Pieces Copilot lets you add specific folders or files to the conversation’s context window—like files from the codebase you’re working in—so that you always have explicit and accurate answers to pressing questions at your fingertips.
