Available today. Use it from your connected AI after setup.

Connect ahel once, and every AI you use reads what you have installed.

Then ask your AI: use the Code Style skill

What this skill tells your AI

The instructions your AI receives, as published by jetbrains/mps in .agents/skills/code-style/SKILL.md and read by ahel’s review.

Follow the IntelliJ Coding Guidelines with these IntelliJ-specific rules.

Language

  • ALWAYS use Kotlin for new files - Only use Java when modifying existing Java code
  • Use idiomatic Kotlin: extension functions, data classes, null safety
  • Mark experimental APIs with @ApiStatus.Experimental
  • Build scripts Kotlin style: Follow community/platform/build-scripts/kotlin-style-recommendations.md for build-scripts code:
    • Use @JvmField for internal data class fields
    • Use .put()/.get() instead of [] operator
    • Use explicit HashMap/HashSet/LinkedHashMap instead of mutableMapOf()/mutableSetOf()

Formatting

  • Indentation: 2 spaces (4 for Go files)
  • Line length: 140 characters max
  • Braces: else/catch/finally on new lines
  • Only in /rustrover directory you must always use standard Kotlin formatting rules with 4 spaces indentation.
