"developers constantly switch between the command line... and their IDE for coding, which is inefficient and breaks concentration."
"no vendor lock-in"
"search 10,000 extensions,"
JetBrains, Google, and Zed Industries have adopted the Agent Client Protocol (ACP) to standardize how AI coding agents integrate with code editors and IDEs. ACP enables coding agents to integrate automatically with any editor that implements the protocol, removing the need for per-editor add-ins or reliance on a CLI workflow. Google and Zed developed ACP to address inefficiencies from switching between a CLI and an IDE. JetBrains plans to support ACP and collaborate on its development, citing no vendor lock-in. ACP could benefit competing IDEs, but broad impact depends on whether dominant editors like VS Code implement the protocol.
