The Agent Client Protocol (ACP) standardizes communication between code editors (interactive programs for viewing and editing source code) and coding agents (programs that use generative AI to autonomously modify code).
The protocol is still under heavy development, and we aim to mature it as we get confidence in the design by implementing it in various settings.
