ACP (Agent Client Protocol) entry point for gptme — lets editors like Zed and JetBrains launch gptme via uvx

gptme-acp

ACP (Agent Client Protocol) entry point for gptme.

This is a thin shim package that allows gptme to be listed in the ACP agent registry and launched via uvx, enabling agent discovery in editors like Zed and JetBrains.

Usage

Quick start (no install required)

uvx gptme-acp

Persistent install

pipx install gptme-acp
gptme-acp

What this package does

gptme-acp is a minimal wrapper that:

1. Declares gptme[acp] as its dependency (pulls in gptme + the agent-client-protocol library)
2. Exposes gptme-acp as its default executable — the ACP server that editors connect to

The agent communicates with editors via JSON-RPC over stdio using the ACP protocol.

ACP Agent Registry

This package exists so gptme can be listed in the ACP agent registry:

{
  "package": "gptme-acp",
  "launch": {"type": "uvx"}
}

The registry powers agent discovery in Zed, JetBrains, and other ACP-compatible editors. Without this package, the registry cannot launch gptme because:

• uvx gptme runs the interactive CLI, not the ACP server
• uvx --from 'gptme[acp]' gptme-acp requires --from, a shape the registry cannot express
• Extras-qualified specs like gptme[acp] fail the registry's package-existence check

Configuration

The ACP agent uses gptme's standard configuration (~/.config/gptme/config.toml). API keys are read from environment variables (ANTHROPIC_API_KEY, OPENAI_API_KEY, etc.).
