Spring Tools 5.4.0 released for @code, @cursor_ai, @EclipseJavaIDE 2026-09, @theia_ide - and Claude Code - download from spring.io/tools - for more details: github.com/spring-projects/s…
A regular web controller that is also annotated with ResponseBody? Spring Tools now suggests turning it into a RestController, with a quick fix to make the switch in one go 🥳
Another new validation and quick fix, this time for your tests: ExtendWith(SpringExtension.class) combined with ContextConfiguration can be replaced by the much shorter SpringJUnitConfig annotation - and Spring Tools offers to do that for you 😎
Using Spring Modulith? There is a new validation that spots the classic Async + Transactional + TransactionalEventListener combination and includes a quick fix that turns it into a single ApplicationModuleListener annotation - less boilerplate, same behavior 🥳 🚀
Due to a close collaboration with the team behind @intellijidea, we are proud to announce that the @springtools4 for VSCode work nicely together with this new Java tooling for VSCode. Just make sure to update to the latest 2.4.1 release of the Spring Tools for VSCode and enjoy!
Java and Kotlin by IntelliJ IDEA has reached 1.0!
Built together with @cursor_ai, this LSP-based extension release is a major leap toward bringing our JVM technology beyond the IDE – wherever you’re working, whichever editor or agent you use.

Good news: we fixed an issue that caused inner class records to show up as bean definitions - so in case you came across this in the past, make sure to update to the latest release 😊
Bringing more Spring smartness to your coding agent doesn't stop with diagnostics, it comes with the corresponding quick fixes for those observations as well - now as skills and explanation markdowns that tell the agent precisely how to improve the code and fix the issue 🎉
Our extension for Claude Code can tell your agent what seems to be wrong with your project from a Spring perspective by deliverung diagnostics information directly to the agent - pretty nice to safe tokens and to enhance the agent with more Spring smartness 😎🥳
Our extension for Claude Code comes with a nice little skill that integrates Spring Initializr into Claude Code, making it super easy to create new Spring Boot projects right from within Claude Code... 😎🚀
Out now: Spring Tools for Claude Code 🥳🚀🎉 We added Claude Code to the family of supported coding environments - bringing Spring related tools and skills to Claude Code. All early stages and experimental, but feel free to give it a try: github.com/spring-projects/s…

And the quick fix can not just convert individual references, but several in one go 🥳
If you would like to know more about type-safe property references in Spring Data, there is a great talk by Mark Paluch, the awesome brain behind this, from Spring IO 2026 about this: youtube.com/watch?v=f5ehQCij…
Not using the new type-safe property references in Spring Data yet? We are here to help 😎. Introducing a new validation that flags string-based property references automatically - and provides a quick fix to switch to the new mechanism 🚀🥳
If you are building MCP servers with Spring AI, having a good tool description can be key for an LLM to pick the right one. So we added a validation that checks for a (configurable) minimum length - just as a first indicator 😀
The new support for Spring AI in the Spring Tools starts with indexing the Spring AI annotations and giving you a nice overview in the outline view as well as the symbols navigation 😎🥳 @SpringAICentral
The version validation got a new option: in addition to fetching GA version information from spring.io, you can switch to a repository-based resolution, so if you have a company-internal or commercial repository configued, validations run against those versions🥳🚀

The next Spring Tools release is dropping next week. And it comes with something we're genuinely excited about that maybe surprises you - or maybe not. 😉 Can't wait to ship it. Stay tuned. 👀
