Adding quick fix or intention to existing problems fround through other inspections

Hi,

Unfortunately, there is no API that would allow achieving it.

I managed to get it working using the HighlightInfoFilter extension point - I understand this is meant for filtering out highlights but I'm using it to mutate the highlightInfo and register a quickfix using `highlightInfo#registerFix`. Do you see any problems with using it this way? Appreciate any comments, and thanks for responding!

Using API in an unintentional way is a bad idea. Its behavior may be changed in a way that may break your code, e.g., HighlightInfo may become immutable by wrapping it after it is created/registered.

Noted, thanks! Is there any other way I could get a list of all the problems in the current file to do something with them? Perhaps maybe I could Gutter Icons with actions for each problem, or just show them in a separate Pane with the actions I want.

Is there any update in API to do it now ?

I achieved it that way, which is clearly ugly

public class ExceptionHighlightInfoFilter implements HighlightInfoFilter {
    @Override
    public boolean accept(@NotNull HighlightInfo highlightInfo, @Nullable PsiFile file) {
       if (file == null) return true;

       if (highlightInfo.getDescription() != null &&
             highlightInfo.getDescription().toLowerCase().contains("exception")) {

          QuickFixAction.registerQuickFixAction(highlightInfo, new AddExceptionTransactionIntention());
       }

       return true;
    }
}

I tried to use following code, but registerErrorQuickFix is never get executed

Inspired from com.intellij.codeInsight.daemon.impl.analysis.JavaErrorQuickFixProvider

public class AddExceptionTransactionFix implements ErrorQuickFixProvider {

	@Override
	public void registerErrorQuickFix(@NotNull final PsiErrorElement errorElement, final HighlightInfo.@NotNull Builder info) {
		System.out.println(errorElement.getErrorDescription());
		// ...
	}
}

Declared that way

It looks like there will be something available in version 2025.2 https://github.com/JetBrains/intellij-community/blob/idea/252.13776.59/java/java-impl/src/com/intellij/codeInsight/daemon/impl/analysis/JavaErrorQuickFixProvider.java#L20
