What is a NOAI file?
A NOAI file is an empty file used by JetBrains IDEs, such as IntelliJ IDEA and JetBrains PyCharm, to disable JetBrains AI Assistant features for a project. It contains no settings, code, or other data. Instead, its presence in a project's root directory tells the JetBrains AI Assistant plugin not to use its AI features for that project.
More Information
Developers typically use NOAI files when a project should not use JetBrains AI Assistant, such as when it contains source code that should not be processed by AI services or when the project has a policy against using AI assistance. If you open a project in a supported JetBrains IDE that uses the JetBrains AI Assistant plugin and the IDE detects the NOAI file, the JetBrains AI Assistant is automatically disabled.
NOTE: To disable JetBrains AI Assistant for a project, create an empty file named .noai in the project's root directory.
How to open a NOAI file
NOAI files are not meant to be opened. JetBrains IDEs use the file automatically when it's in the project's root directory, so users generally don't need to open or edit it. You can open NOAI files with a text editor, but the file is empty.
