ACP Client

About

The Agent Client Protocol standardizes how editors talk to coding agents, but each editor needs a client implementation, and VS Code's built-in options leave gaps. ACP Client plugs the protocol into VS Code with 11 agents pre-configured — GitHub Copilot, Claude Code, Gemini CLI, Qwen Code, Codex CLI, OpenCode, Auggie, and more — plus support for custom agents over the same protocol. The chat panel renders markdown and reasoning, exposes mode and model pickers, handles file and terminal access with per-action permission management, and logs raw protocol traffic for debugging. With 27,000+ installs, it is one of the most-used ACP frontends, serving developers who switch among multiple agent CLIs.
