Building an ACP-Compatible Agent Live — Bennet Fenner, Zed

This session explores building an AI coding agent that integrates with the Agent Client Protocol (ACP), Zed's open-source JSON RPC-based standard for agent-client communication. It covers essential architectural elements, including protocol design, session lifecycle management, real-time streaming of model output via session updates, and sophisticated handling of tool calls, such as proxied file system operations and self-modifying code for new capabilities like a terminal tool.

Scaling Agents on Kubernetes with acpx and ACP — Onur Solmaz, OpenClaw

Onur Solmaz from OpenClaw discusses the challenge of managing 300-500 daily, often AI-generated, pull requests. He introduces ACPX, a headless CLI for the Agent Client Protocol (ACP), designed to automate PR triage through a node-based workflow. The talk culminates in a vision for on-demand, disposable agent pods on Kubernetes, managed by a Go operator that provisions and tears down full compute environments per task, wiring them into chat platforms like Slack.
