JetBrains Air adds support for more agents, local AI models, Docker on Windows, and more

Air, the agentic development environment from JetBrains, introduces major updates to expand flexibility and language support. Developers can now connect external coding agents through the Agent Client Protocol (ACP), opening integration with agents such as GitHub Copilot CLI, OpenCode, Pi, Cline, and more. This change allows users to manage multiple agents seamlessly within the same review and task workflow.
