ACP Pro · VS Code · Agent Client Protocol
Open Claude Code, Codex, Copilot, Gemini, and other ACP agents side by side. Keep each task's model, permissions, working directory, git state, and history in its own tab—then open the live workspace in a browser when you step away or want a second set of eyes.

Agent compatibility
Start any built-in agent through its maintained ACP command, or add more compatible agents from the growing ACP Registry.
Browse the ACP RegistryHow it works
Choose the right agents, keep every step inspectable, and open the same live workspace in a browser when you move away from VS Code.
Plans, streamed tool calls, file diffs, git context, token and cost usage, model controls, and permission mode stay visible around the conversation.
Review the evidence, cost, and completion state before accepting an agent’s result.
Browse the ACP Registry, add compatible agents, then manage agents, appearance, license, and extension details from one reusable VS Code editor tab.
Keep specialized agents ready without hard-coding the workspace to one provider.
Open the same workspace in a desktop or phone browser. Check a long-running task after you step away, intervene when needed, or invite a teammate to review the live evidence.
Agent work stays observable beyond your desk—without moving the session out of VS Code.
Built for daily work
The screenshots show the flow. Underneath it, ACP Pro keeps agent choice, execution evidence, codebase state, and recovery organized for repeated use.
Keep every conversation separate, with its own agent, directory, and history.
Pick an agent per session and switch between Live and Recent in one sidebar — browse by directory, reopen earlier work, or close a live session while keeping its history.
Each tab shows its working directory, connection state, agent version, and git branch. Browse folders, fork or duplicate a session, export or search the transcript, and pick a directory per tab.
The last session restores on reload; finished idle sessions release after 60 minutes while drafts, scheduled prompts, permissions, and remote views stay protected. Default cap of eight live sessions, both limits configurable.
Give the agent precise context and control when each follow-up lands.
Type @ to mention files and ranges, paste or drag attachments with preview, and send the active editor selection (Ctrl+Alt+L / Cmd+Alt+L). Supports slash commands and skills.
Sending mid-turn queues to Pending; steer the running turn when available or stop and send the replacement. Requires Claude ACP adapter 0.84.0 for native steering; otherwise stop-and-send.
Press ↑/↓ at the composer to recall session prompts and restore the draft caret. Add a delay like 4m or 1h4m to schedule a draft or queued prompt.
Per-session model, permission mode, and reasoning/effort controls (e.g. Codex fast mode). Inline input/output, cache, window, and cost metrics with exact values on hover.
Follow the plan, inspect the evidence, and keep answers readable.
Execution plans in a collapsible task panel; agent reasoning in a separate expandable block so the transcript stays focused.
Reads, edits, shell commands, and searches stream with status; diffs show changed-line totals and word-level highlights with clickable paths resolved to the session cwd.
GFM Markdown, code, scrollable tables, LaTeX, and Mermaid diagrams with pan, zoom, copy-source, and SVG export. Images, audio, and resource blocks render inline.
Follow work from any device and tailor the workspace to your flow.
Copy a share URL from the ACP status bar to open the live workspace in a browser — phone or desktop — via LAN or VS Code port forwarding. Per-workspace toggle in Settings → Bridge Server.
Persistent share code, owner password, and an owner-only read-only/full-write toggle for browser viewers. Activate once in Settings → License across the same VS Code client profile.
System/Dark/Light themes (plus sun/moon toggle) and a reusable Settings editor. Run ACP Pro: Toggle Debug Mode for live ACP request/response logs in the Output panel.
License
Every core agent workflow stays free. A Pro activation follows your VS Code client profile across local and remote workspaces while protected host keys keep the browser-access entitlement bound to approved environments.

FAQ
ACP Pro requires VS Code 1.96 or later and Node.js 20 or later for agents launched through npx.
No. ACP Pro speaks Agent Client Protocol, so it can work with Claude Code, Codex CLI, Copilot CLI, Gemini CLI, Qwen Code, OpenCode, and any compatible agent.
The core extension is free to install and use. A Pro license unlocks optional browser-access controls such as a persistent access code and owner password.
Yes. Browser access can be turned off per workspace from the Bridge Server settings.
