- Claude Code integration is now available in public beta in Zed through the Agent Client Protocol (ACP).
- ACP is an open standard allowing any agent to connect to Zed and other editors.
- Features include real-time editing, syntax highlighting, granular change review, and custom workflows.
- Claude Code runs natively in Zed, offering better control and visibility than the terminal interface.
- The integration uses an open-source adapter, available under the Apache license.
- ACP enables multiple agents, like Gemini CLI and Claude Code, to work side-by-side in Zed.
- Future updates will include Plan mode and more advanced features as Anthropic expands SDK support.
- Developers are encouraged to contribute to ACP and the Claude Code adapter repositories.
- Zed is available for download on macOS and Linux.
