# Seq MCP Plugin <!-- Plugin description --> `Seq MCP` is an IntelliJ IDEA plugin for bringing Seq observability workflows and Model Context Protocol integration into the IDE. It exposes Seq-focused tools through JetBrains' built-in MCP server so AI assistants can work against the currently opened project. To work properly, the IDE must include the built-in MCP server, the AI assistant must be configured to use that server, and `Seq MCP` must be enabled for the current project in `Settings | Tools | Seq MCP`. ## Support the project If you find this plugin helpful and want to support its development, consider buying me a coffee: <table align="center" style="border-collapse: collapse; width: 100%; text-align: center;"> <tbody> </tbody> <tfoot> <tr style="background-color: #f9f9f9;"> <td style="padding: 20px;"> <a href="https://buymeacoffee.com/vitalii_b" style="text-decoration: none; color: inherit;"> <pre style="display: inline-block; margin: 10px 0; font-family: monospace;"> ( ( ) ) ........ | |] \ / `----' Buy Me a Coffee </pre> </a> </td> </tr> </tfoot> </table> <!-- Plugin description end --> [](https://plugins.jetbrains.com/plugin/31358-seq-mcp) [](https://plugins.jetbrains.com/plugin/31358-seq-mcp) ## Status This repository is bootstrapped from the official [JetBrains IntelliJ Platform Plugin Template](https://github.com/JetBrains/intellij-platform-plugin-template) and targets IntelliJ IDEA Ultimate via the IntelliJ Platform Gradle Plugin 2.x. The plugin includes: - Gradle Kotlin DSL build configured for IntelliJ IDEA Ultimate `2026.1` - Dependencies on the bundled JetBrains MCP server and AI assistant integrations - Plugin metadata for `Seq MCP` - Project-level enablement setting, placeholder tool window, and project service - Startup activity and a basic platform test ## Requirements - IntelliJ IDEA Ultimate `2026.1` or another compatible JetBrains IDE build that includes the bundled MCP server plugin required by this project - JetBrains AI Assistant available in the IDE - The IDE's built-in MCP server added to the AI assistant MCP configuration - `Seq MCP` enabled for the current project in `Settings | Tools | Seq MCP` - `SEQ_SERVER_URL` configured; `SEQ_API_KEY` is optional but recommended - Project indexing finished before invoking MCP-assisted flows ## Installation and setup 1. Open a compatible JetBrains IDE. 2. Install `Seq MCP` from the [JetBrains Marketplace](https://plugins.jetbrains.com/plugin/31358-seq-mcp) or run it from source with `./gradlew runIde`. 3. Make sure the IDE's built-in MCP server is available to the AI assistant you want to use. 4. Add the IDE MCP server entry to the assistant's MCP configuration. 5. Open `Settings | Tools | Seq MCP`. 6. Leave `Enable for this project` checked for the current project. 7. Configure `SEQ_SERVER_URL` and any default or workspace-specific API keys you want to use. 8. Wait for indexing to finish before invoking Seq MCP tools. ## MCP usage notes - Seq MCP tools are exposed through the built-in JetBrains MCP server, not a standalone server from this repository. - Tools operate against the currently opened IDE project. - If the plugin is disabled for the current project, the Seq MCP tool window is hidden and MCP tools are not exposed. ## Development Use Java 21 and the Gradle wrapper included in this repository. ```bash ./gradlew runIde ./gradlew check ./gradlew verifyPlugin ``` ## License Licensed under the Apache License, Version 2.0.
