pi-jetbrains-junie-bridge

A Pi extension that lets you use JetBrains Junie as the AI backend for the Pi coding agent — using your existing Junie subscription.

Install

pi install npm:pi-jetbrains-junie-bridge

Then inside pi run the /login command. Select Use a subscription and then JetBrains Junie to authenticate.

Once authenticated, run /model to select a model provided by the junie bridge.

Features

• OAuth login — browser-based JetBrains authentication with automatic token refresh
• Balance tracking — session cost and remaining balance shown in Pi's status line (see footer)
• /junie command — check proxy status, balance, and available models from within Pi

Available Models

Only OpenAI and Anthropic (Claude) models are supported. Google/Gemini models are not supported — the Grazie backend requires a native protocol for these and rejects the OAuth tokens used by this proxy.

Recommendation: Use the Claude models — only Anthropic models send reasoning blocks (extended thinking) to Pi, which significantly improves coding output quality.

Anthropic:

• claude-sonnet-4-6
• claude-sonnet-5
• claude-opus-4-6
• claude-opus-4-7
• claude-opus-4-8
• claude-fable-5

OpenAI:

• openai-gpt-5-2
• openai-gpt-5-4 — reasoning effort not adjustable (OpenAI limitation with tool use)
• openai-gpt-5-5 — reasoning effort not adjustable (OpenAI limitation with tool use)

Requirements

• Node.js 20+
• A JetBrains Junie subscription

How It Works

The extension starts a local proxy server that translates between Pi and JetBrains' Grazie backend. On first use, you'll authenticate via JetBrains OAuth (browser-based PKCE flow).

┌─────────┐     ┌──────────────┐     ┌──────────────┐
│   Pi    │────>│  pi-junie    │────>│ Junie/Grazie │
│ agent   │     │  local proxy │     │   backend    │
└─────────┘     └──────────────┘     └──────────────┘

• OpenAI models (openai-gpt-*) are forwarded via /v1/chat/completions
• Anthropic models (claude-*) are forwarded via /v1/messages
• The proxy runs on an ephemeral port and shuts down when Pi exits

Disclaimer

This extension includes a proxy server reverse-engineered from the official JetBrains Junie CLI. It is not officially supported by JetBrains. Use it in accordance with the JetBrains AI Service Terms of Service.
