Your diff has a demo now with Junie /demo
JetBrains has introduced a new '/demo' mode for its AI agent, Junie, designed to automate the execution and verification of code changes. This feature allows the AI to launch the application and navigate to specific screens to validate functional flows after code implementation.

Impact & Verification Analysis
Software developers using JetBrains IDEs with Junie AI integration.
It significantly reduces the feedback loop in the development cycle by automating the 'last mile' of verification, allowing developers to delegate functional testing to the AI agent alongside code generation.
Full Fact Overview
The introduction of '/demo' mode represents a shift in AI-assisted development from pure code generation to autonomous quality assurance and functional verification. By enabling the agent to interact with the application runtime, JetBrains is reducing the manual overhead required for developers to verify that code changes perform as expected in a live environment. This capability suggests an integration between the AI agent and the IDE's internal execution/debugging engine, allowing the agent to perform UI-level validation tasks that were previously restricted to human manual testing.
