GitHub Copilot for JetBrains now supports enterprise managed settings for plugin governance, MCP server access, OpenTelemetry, and permission modes. Administrators can now apply consistent controls for everyone on your enterprise’s Copilot plan.
Enterprise-managed plugin governance Administrators can manage Copilot plugins and their marketplaces in JetBrains IDEs. The supported settings provide three controls:
Enabled plugins: UseenabledPlugins
to require a plugin to be enabled or disabled.Additional marketplaces: UseextraKnownMarketplaces
to make approved plugin sources available.Restricted marketplaces: UsestrictKnownMarketplaces
to limit installation to approved sources.
MCP server allowlist
Administrators can use allowedMcpServers
and deniedMcpServers
to centrally control which MCP servers developers can connect to from GitHub Copilot for JetBrains. This brings centrally managed MCP governance into JetBrains IDEs and prevents connections to servers outside the enterprise allowlist.
Managed OpenTelemetry Administrators can centrally configure OpenTelemetry for Copilot in JetBrains IDEs, including the collector endpoint, protocol, service name, resource attributes, and content-capture policy. Managed values take precedence over developer settings, so telemetry is consistently routed to the approved collector.
Developers can review the applied configuration under Settings > Tools > GitHub Copilot > Chat > OpenTelemetry.
Organization-controlled permission modes
Administrators can set permissions.disableBypassPermissionsMode
to disable
to prevent the Copilot agent in JetBrains from using Bypass Approvals or Autopilot.
