Overview
ProxyAI is a Kotlin plugin for JetBrains IDEs that adds chat, inline autocomplete, next-edit suggestions and natural-language code edits. It connects to hosted providers such as OpenAI, Anthropic, Azure and Mistral, or to a self-hosted model for offline use. Suggested changes stream into the editor and can be reviewed in diff view before applying.
Who it is for: JetBrains IDE users wanting a Copilot alternative with their own model provider
