## AI overview

The article presents Level 3 of MCP Steroid, where the devrig CLI autonomously configures an agent's MCP connection and downloads or starts an IntelliJ-family IDE. Its end-to-end test reports that Claude found 4,633 PSI usages of a class in Keycloak in one prompt.

## Source excerpt

The new `devrig` CLI in MCP Steroid 0.100 turns the IDE bring-up ritual into one stdio command. `devrig install ` writes the MCP config; `devrig backend download/start` brings an IntelliJ-family IDE into existence and gives the agent an IDE of its own. In the e2e test, Claude provisions an IDE and finds 4,633 PSI usages of one class in Keycloak -- in one prompt.
