Install Jetbrains

Kilo Code v7 for JetBrains is officially available. It uses a native JetBrains interface, works well in remote development split mode, and does not require Node.js.

The JetBrains plugin provides the best native JetBrains UX for working with an AI coding agent, and it improves with every release. Enable automatic plugin updates to get the latest fixes and improvements as soon as they are available.

Install the JetBrains plugin

1. Open IntelliJ IDEA or another JetBrains IDE
2. Go to Settings → Plugins
3. Search for Kilo Code in the Marketplace tab
4. Click Install or Update and restart your IDE if prompted
5. Open Settings → Appearance & Behavior → System Settings → Updates, then enable Update plugins automatically (recommended)
