Vibe code with pi in a lightweight, real IDE that customises itself around the way you work — The Vibe You Need

JetBrains' new agentic IDE turns the pi coding agent into isolated worktree workspaces — ThinkRail wraps JetBrains' pi coding agent in an IDE that runs each task as an isolated git-worktree workspace, tracks project knowledge via living specs, and settles finished branches automatically. It's aimed at developers running parallel AI coding sessions who want spec-driven context instead of ad-hoc prompting, with extension support planned next.
