JetBrains throws support behind Agent Client Protocol
SMRTR summary
JetBrains has joined Google and Zed Industries in adopting the Agent Client Protocol (ACP), a new standard that allows AI coding assistants to work seamlessly across different code editors and development environments. Currently, developers building AI coding tools must create separate add-ins for each editor or rely on inefficient command-line interfaces that force constant switching between terminal and coding environment. The protocol aims to eliminate vendor lock-in by letting developers use any compatible AI assistant with their preferred editor, potentially challenging Microsoft's dominance with Visual Studio Code's 75% market share.
