Description

Hello!
open_file_in_editor tool added in https://github.com/JetBrains/mcp-server-plugin/commit/0587c5198b4dc9fc38c1033ea79766b645cbad5b lack ability to open file on specified line. It will be very usefull in cases when user ask agent to show part of code in editor.
For example mcp__rider__search_symbol returns file, line and column but my claude agent can not open the editor at this location.

Bets regards, Evgenii.

Research direction

Start with the open_file_in_editor tool added in commit 0587c5198b4dc9fc38c1033ea79766b645cbad5b, then compare its inputs with the file, line, and column returned by mcp__rider__search_symbol. Done means the tool can open a file at a specified line so an agent can navigate directly to the requested code location.
