Junie does not support BYOK inside the IDE
Has this position recently changed? It states this on the marketing page?

> Use a JetBrains AI subscription or connect your preferred provider with Bring Your Own Key (BYOK).

It seem confusing. My understanding is the AI assistant part (i.e. chat) is configurable. But Junie IDE is only via credits through Jetbrains.

(To make it more confusing, Junie CLI seems to say it will any provider)

What does the k stand for? Key?

You can add any open Ai api endpoint you want, no?

No, you have to buy their subscription within the IDE
The JetBrains AI Assistant plugins says:

> Choose how AI runs by selecting built-in AI models from top-tier providers, bringing your own API keys or connecting local models.

And the AI Assistant in turn can use Junie.

At least that is what the plugin overview says, I have not tested it.
