mypy-pycharm is a wrapper around mypy that formats file paths in the mypy output in a way that Pycharm can parse. Notabliy adding absolute path names. This allows you to go to the error directly by clicking on the provided link.
The tool accepts all standard mypy options and passes them through to mypy but also expects an additional final argument which is the absolute path to the directory you are running mypy in.
Shamelessly inspired by pylint-pycharm <3!
