IDE Integrations

Syntic Code works in your editor, not just the terminal. Native integrations exist for the major IDEs, with a generic LSP-style bridge for everything else.

Supported Editors

Editor	Status	Distribution
VS Code	Stable	Marketplace: `syntic-ai.syntic-code`
JetBrains (IntelliJ, PyCharm, GoLand, WebStorm, Rider)	Stable	JetBrains Marketplace
Zed	Stable	Built-in extension
Cursor	Stable	Marketplace: `syntic-ai.syntic-code`
Neovim	Beta	`syntic-ai/syntic.nvim`
Vim	Beta	`syntic-ai/syntic.vim`
Emacs	Beta	`syntic.el` on MELPA
Sublime	Community	Package Control

VS Code

Install from the Marketplace, then Cmd+Shift+P → Syntic: Open Chat.

Features:

Inline chat panel alongside your code
Diff preview before file changes apply
Tool-call approval inline
Plan Mode toggle in the status bar
Auto-detects .syntic/settings.json per workspace
Shares auth with the CLI (sign in once)

JetBrains

Install Syntic Code from the JetBrains Marketplace. Works in IntelliJ IDEA, PyCharm, GoLand, WebStorm, Rider, RustRover, and DataGrip.

Open the Syntic tool window from the right sidebar. Same feature set as VS Code, with JetBrains-native diff and run-config integration.

Zed

Built into Zed 0.150+. Open the assistant panel, switch the provider to Syntic, sign in, done.

Neovim

-- lazy.nvim
{
  "syntic-ai/syntic.nvim",
  config = function()
    require("syntic").setup({
      keymap = { open_chat = "<leader>sc" },
    })
  end,
}

Opens a floating chat window. Tool approval inline. Supports terminal mode (:SynticTerminal) which embeds the CLI.

Generic LSP Bridge

For editors with no native plugin, point them at the bridge:

syntic lsp --port 7777

The bridge speaks a Syntic-extended Language Server Protocol. Documented at code.syntic.ai/docs/ide-integrations/lsp-bridge.

All IDE integrations share the same auth token stored at ~/.syntic/credentials. Sign in once with syntic login, every editor picks it up.
