Use the IntelliJ plugin

For IntelliJ IDEA. The result is the SHAFT tool window open and setup verified. An AI agent connection is optional.

Steps​

  1. Install the SHAFT plugin from JetBrains Marketplace, or install a ZIP and restart if the IDE asks.
  2. Open Tools | SHAFT | Open SHAFT.
  3. In Set up SHAFT tools, let Prerequisites detect Python 3, Java, and Maven. Use Open in Terminal for anything missing, then Recheck.
  4. Choose a setup route only if you want an agent. Open setup command in terminal, review the command, and press Enter yourself. The plugin does not run the installer.
  5. Verify setup until it reports the SHAFT tools it needs.

The check is a verified tool window, not a generated test. Recorder, Doctor, and coding-partner actions are documented on IntelliJ IDEA plugin. Follow one action there after this page is done.
