JetBrains IDE plugins for developers. Better tooling for Nginx, Python, Django, and more. Built by

[meanmail.dev @meanmaildev]

We build JetBrains IDE plugins and developer tools that remove friction from real workflows.

Nginx, Python, Django, MCP servers, AI tools — practical products for developers who care about speed and correctness.

An MCP server can work in Claude Code and still be missing from Junie or JetBrains AI Assistant. The clients read different config files and scopes.

Manage them from one JetBrains IDE and inspect tools before running:

This Nginx config can pass `nginx -t` and still become an open proxy:

proxy_pass http://$arg_host;

The syntax is valid. The trust boundary is not.

Nginx Configuration Pro for JetBrains IDEs flags user-controlled proxy targets while you edit:

GitHub Actions `run:` blocks do not all mean Bash.

On a Windows runner, an omitted shell resolves to PowerShell. That changes syntax, environment writes, and how `$GITHUB_OUTPUT` should be parsed.

Workflow tooling should resolve the runner OS before injecting a language.

docker compose up is the easy part.

The working loop is: check health → open logs → inspect the failing container → restart what changed.

Docker Manager keeps that loop inside JetBrains IDEs.

Two plugins claim the same file extension in your JetBrains IDE?

File Type Switcher lets you pick the type for one file from the editor, keeps that choice across restarts, and offers Reset to Default. Free.

Working across Ansible projects with different collections?

Ansible Pro 6 reads each project's configured ansible-doc for module completion and Ctrl+Q docs in JetBrains IDEs. Free tier; scoped to Ansible YAML.

GitHub shows the failed job. Visual GitHub Actions shows how it affects the workflow.

See `needs`, matrix results, and blocked downstream jobs on the graph inside your JetBrains IDE. Click the failed node to open the exact GitHub job and logs.

@appdevbyamitesh Allowlisting MCP servers is only half the boundary. Teams also need per-action permissions, explicit approval for external writes, and an audit trail with the exact tool, target, and result. “Server allowed” shouldn’t mean every action it exposes is pre-approved.

[meanmail.dev @meanmaildev]

@biwills The hard part with ephemeral runners is the lifecycle around them: one job per runner, short-lived registration tokens, no workspace reuse, and guaranteed cleanup after cancellation. If those are the defaults, this is much safer than the usual long-lived self-hosted runner.

[meanmail.dev @meanmaildev]

@simonw Permission boundaries should follow effects, not tools. “Run this experiment” can authorize local execution, but creating CI config and pushing a commit are separate effects, even if they achieve the same goal. Changing the execution surface should trigger a new approval.

@dskr_dev Судя по загрузкам плагинов, ещё пользуются — и довольно активно 🙂

nginx is often part of critical production infrastructure.

It’s surprising how weak the editing experience still is in many setups.

Been improving this for JetBrains users: Nginx Configuration Pro

[Dev Hunt @devhunt_]

Nginx Configuration Pro by @meanmaildev is a JetBrains plugin built for DevOps engineers and backend developers.

⇨ It enhances the Nginx configuration workflow with intelligent assistance inside the IDE.
