Use Comma with Junie

Junie finishes a task with a summary of what it changed and why. For anything bigger than a small fix, that summary deserves a reviewer. Junie reads remote MCP servers with headers, so Comma is one small JSON file.

Add Comma to Junie

User: ~/.junie/mcp/mcp.json. Project: .junie/mcp/mcp.json. In the Junie CLI, /mcp opens the configuration screen.

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "comma": {
      "url": "https://commareports.com/api/mcp",
      "headers": {
        "Authorization": "Bearer comma_sk_…"
      }
    }
  }
}

Replace comma_sk_… with a token from Settings → API tokens → New token on Comma (or export it as COMMA_API_TOKEN where the snippet reads an env var). The default scopes — reports:write, comments:read, comments:write — cover publishing and review.

Junie gotchas

  • Keep the token in the user-level file. .junie/ in a project is often committed along with .junie/guidelines.md.
  • Add the publish rule to .junie/guidelines.md — Junie reads it every task.
  • Using AI Assistant chat rather than Junie? That needs the mcp-remote bridge — see the JetBrains AI Assistant guide.

What the agent can do

Capability Tools
Publish a report create_report, update_report, create_report_from_url
Find existing reports list_reports, search_reports, get_report, read_report
Leave / reply to comments add_comment, reply_to_comment, set_comment_status, list_comments
Ask for review, share request_review, set_report_sharing, get_report_signoffs
Manage assets upload_report_asset, list_report_assets, delete_report_asset

Junie picks the tool from the request — there are no Junie-specific commands to learn.

A workflow that sticks

  1. Ask Junie to write up the work as a self-contained HTML report and publish it to Comma. It calls create_report and returns a link.
  2. Send the link. Reviewers open a rendered page and leave comments anchored to the exact line, cell or chart they mean — no account needed to read a public link.
  3. Next session, ask Junie to address the comments. It reads the threads with list_comments, ships a revision with update_report (same URL), replies, and resolves them.

Reports belong to your workspace, not to the agent. A report published from Junie can be revised tomorrow from Claude Code or Cursor, and the link people bookmarked keeps working.

Token shape

  • Lives in ~/.junie/mcp/mcp.json, outside any repository.
  • Scoped — you choose which actions it can take when you create it.
  • Revocable in one click from Settings → API tokens; revocation applies immediately to the REST API, the MCP server and any routines the token created.
  • Rate-limited per token.

Try it

Add the entry, generate a token, restart Junie, and ask for a report on something you worked on today. Then leave a comment on it and ask the agent what it sees.
