The latest Copilot for JetBrains update lets admins set managed default models and disable automatic MCP server startup, while dropping support for IDE 2025.1.
GitHub Copilot for JetBrains released an update that adds more control over default models and the MCP server startup behavior. Enterprise administrators can now use managed settings to select any available Copilot agent model as the default for new conversations, while still allowing users to pick a different model if desired. A new MCP setting also lets administrators disable the automatic startup of the Copilot and Claude servers, giving teams control over when these tools become active. The release also improves diagnostics by adding a Fix action that opens inline chat to repair reported issues, and it enhances reliability during language‑server startup and model switching. Support for JetBrains IDE 2025.1 has been ended; users must upgrade to version 2025.2 or later to continue using the plugin.
