JetBrains IDEs

Name: Watchfire
Author: Watchfire

IntelliJ, GoLand, WebStorm and friends — open the worktree, review the branch.

What is JetBrains IDEs?

JetBrains IDEs cooperate with Watchfire the same way VS Code does: open the worktree folder, review the branch.

Any IntelliJ-family IDE that opens a folder can open a Watchfire worktree.
Use the IDE's built-in git tools to diff and review the task branch like any other feature branch.
No plugin or sidecar — the IDE doesn't need to know Watchfire exists.

Open the worktree folder and review the diff like any other branch.

Watchfire runs in your other terminal pane.

Distinct from Cursor Agent, the CLI. The IDE just opens the worktree.
