Yeah, that would be nice.
I remember you shared bsky.app/profile/sand...

> Finds installed Rider instances so I don't have to enter the path to text_editor/external/exec_path
yes, exactly this.
I have ideas of other nice features, which can be added later. So I consider it not as just one feature, which adds 2 MB to the plugin, but also as a foundation for more things.

1. In Rider, add a plugin "Python Community"
2. Customize Python FileType in Rider settings to match `SConstruct` file
3. Make sure both your SConstruct and scons_hints.py are either in the vcxproj or in the IJ Index.
4. Enjoy!
I'll see about automating steps (2) and (3).
