Last updated: August 5, 2025 — Leave a comment

JetBrains announced the 2025.2 release of its PyCharm Python IDE today!

2025.2 will be the last supported version of PyCharm Community. In the next 2025.3, there will be only an unified PyCharm with core functionality (including Jupyter Notebook support) for free and a Pro subscription with additional features.

The developer team will offer a seamless way to migrate from the Community to the unified PyCharm, though user can now download that unified product from this page.

Besides the product edition change, the release introduced several major updates to its Junie coding agent.

They include speed boost up to 30%, MCP support allowing to connect to external servers and deliver more accurate solutions, remote development (macOS and Linux so far), and Early Access Program (EAP) for Github integration.

The AI has been improved with smart completion for SQL, YAML, JSON, and Markdown, project rules, OpenAI-compatible model (e.g., llama.cpp or LiteLLM) support, and ability to attach image in chat when using Anthropic and OpenAI models.

It also supports one-click setup for MCP (Model Context Protocol) server, making easy to connect external AI clients like Claude, or Cursor. And, when a compatible client is detected on your machine, it will prompt to enable the server and auto-configure the connection without manual setup required.

PyCharm 2025.2 also added persistent controls to .toml configuration files for uv, Hatch, and Poetry, allowing to apply changes to a .toml file by clicking the corresponding buttons to sync, lock, or update the dependencies in your environment.

Other changes include new image viewer with additional operations (e.g., original, inverted, grayscale, and more), as well as following Pro only features:

  • AI Toolkie, including AI Playground and AI Agents Debugger.
  • Context-aware code generation for Jupyter notebooks and SQL cells.
  • A Logical structure tool window for Django.
  • Add in keyboard in Angular templates.
  • Auto-disable built-in formatter when Prettier is used.
  • Editable results for SELECT queries with JOIN clauses.
  • Support WSL file paths for SQLite.
  • And more.
