I'm having the same issue with PyCharm

I am a developer using IDEA, I solved this problem.

you can try to enter idea yourProjectName(about command link) on the command line, if it doesn't open, it's issue of the idea command, not the plugin.

Solved step:

1. Open Jetbrains Toolbox
2. Type command + , go to setting page
3. Generate shell scripts in /usr/local/bin/
4. Check if there is a script named idea (your dev tool script name)

3. Generate shell scripts in /usr/local/bin/

That is the secret to this problem (at least in my experience), as by default JetBrains Toolbox now creates the Scripts in /Users/lasse/Library/Application Support/JetBrains/Toolbox/scripts on MacOS which (at least in my experience) doesn't work with the Extension even if you change to Script-Path inside it's Settings.

Also you need to manually change the Shell scripts location in the Toolbox-Settings from the old one to /usr/local/bin since at least for me there was no way to select this path through the Finder-Window that opens when clicking Change....

Also from my experience, if you have a new Computer (as I have) the folders local/bin might not even exist yet (for me only /usr/bin/ existed which is protected and can therefore not be used) so you might need to first create the necessary folders before changing the Shell scripts location

The last tip I can give is that even though /usr/local/bin might be written grayed-out in the settings of the Raycast-Extension you actually do need to write it there. If you simply leave the Shell scripts location-Field of the Extension-Settings empty it will also not work.

Well, that's all I have found about this issue and that I had to do to fix it for myself. Now that it is fixed I absolutely love it since I don't even have to keep the Toolbox open all the time in the background because the scripts automatically open the appropriate IDEs without needing the Toolbox.
