I think this is what JetBrains Air is supposed to be. I haven't had a chance to test it but it seems promising.

Yeah, one limit for me is I need to use the subscriptions, so I'm tied to the Claude Code and Codex harnesses. The best solution IMO is a "bring-your-own-harness" one, where you can drop in whatever harness works the best for you and your development environment can be driven by it.

Air itself as well as the new Air plugin for the IDEs and the AI assistant support ChatGPT subscriptions, though you may have to disable JetBrains as a provider so that it's not billed against that. (It's weirdly called logging ot of JetBrains, though you still remain logged in to JetBrains for all other purposes.)

Anthropic is a different story, but I think it may still be possible via the Claude ACP agent (JetBrains' support of ACP is generally pretty good; I use it with anothe harness for open weight models regularly).

It still suffers the same problems as Junie, which is that their harness is far too bloated.
