"Add dependency" is not available

Hello! Harrygg 

It sounds like you’re experiencing an issue with IntelliJ IDEA where the “Add dependency” option isn’t appearing in the context menu of your Gradle project. This could be due to a number of reasons, such as a plugin conflict, a bug in the IDE version, or an issue with the project setup.

Here’s a short and precise answer: To resolve the missing “Add dependency” option in IntelliJ IDEA, try the following steps:

1. Refresh the Gradle project by clicking on the ‘Refresh’ button in the Gradle tool window.
2. Reimport the project as a Gradle project if the issue persists.
3. Check if the IntelliJ IDEA version you’re using has any known issues related to Gradle integration and consider updating if there’s a newer version available.
4. Ensure that the Package Search plugin is up-to-date and properly configured
