Google's Gemini CLI AI agent has been integrated into the Zed code editor, bringing Gemini models directly into Zed's Rust-based environment. The integration provides a fast, responsive AI experience. Announced August 27, the effort is anchored by Zed's partnership with Google and uses the Gemini CLI as an initial reference implementation, while Zed created the Agent Client Protocol to standardize communication between code editors. The integration unites the terminal and IDE, enabling developers to generate and refactor code in place, receive instant answers, and chat naturally in the terminal. Developers can write a comment, hit a hotkey to generate a function, and highlight confusing code or error messages to obtain immediate explanations.

Announced August 27, the integration is anchored by Zed's partnership with Google to utilize the Gemini CLI as an initial reference implementation. Zed also developed the Agent Client Protocol, which standardizes communication between code editors.
The Gemini CLI integration brings together two vital components-the terminal and the IDE-and supports developers with common tasks, according to Google. Developers can generate and refactor code in place, get instant answers, and chat naturally in their terminal. They can write a comment, hit a hotkey, and get a function generated instantly. Highlighting confusing code or an error message generates an immediate explanation.
