Junie is designed with security and user control needs in mind during development. It enables the "Brave Mode" security mechanism by default, which requests user confirmation before performing potentially high-risk operations (such as file deletion). Meanwhile, each code change generated by Junie will be displayed in the form of a diff comparison, so that developers can review the acceptance or rejection of changes line by line. In terms of data security, JetBrains makes it clear that Junie may need to send some code snippets to the cloud for processing, so users are reminded that they need to carefully assess the risks when using it in sensitive projects.
This design balances the efficiencies that come with automation with the security controls necessary to allow developers to enjoy the convenience of AI-assistance while maintaining control over critical decisions.
