First things first: This message was written by a human 🙃 And this human is curious – if you use AI in your development, what sort of tasks do you regularly hand off to it? Testing, documentation, architecture guidance, code review...? And on the flip side: Any tasks you never trust the AI with?

Last week, I started to try @jetbrains-rider.bsky.social built-in AI functionality to make large-scale code changes. I'm seriously impressed how well it managed to make significant code changes based on my (sometimes) broad requests.

Finally, proper control over those pesky manual breakpoints! The new low-level exception suppression feature in Rider 2025.2 EAP 7 lets you: 🛑 Suppress int3 exceptions 🎯 Set suppressions globally or target specific lines/addresses 🧘‍♂️ Debug without interruptions Check it out: jb.gg/lldb-suppres...

Not to brag, but debugging @unity.com shaders pixel-by-pixel inside Rider is pretty slick 😎🔥 The new Frame Viewer in EAP 6 opens RenderDoc traces right in your IDE. Breakpoints, stepping, vertex inspection - all there. We think you might like it: jb.gg/frame-viewer #gamedev #unity

We're stunned by the love our new #OpenTelemetry plugin for Rider has been receiving lately 🤯 We thought "Hey, observability inside the IDE sounds useful" and gave it our best shot, but the response has been...wow. Bottom line: No more dashboard hopping to optimize your .NET app! 👉 jb.gg/ot-in-rd
