OpenHands is a self‑hosted coding‑agent console that lets multiple agents run across local machines, Docker, VMs or the cloud, integrates Claude Code, Codex and Gemini via ACP, supports automated workflows, and includes detailed installation and security guidance for safe long‑term use.
The article explains how Hermes implements the Agent Communication Protocol (ACP) to become a standard, first‑class Agent server for IDEs like VS Code, Zed, and JetBrains, detailing the protocol’s design, session management, event bridging, and IDE integration benefits.
2026 marks the breakout year for AI agents, and with the maturation of protocols like MCP, ACP, A2A, and ANP, agents can now seamlessly integrate with real‑world tools, collaborate across enterprises, and form a decentralized AI internet, each protocol addressing distinct connectivity and coordination challenges.
This guide walks you through the two main ways to bring Claude Code into IntelliJ IDEA 2026.1—using the official Claude Code plugin and the deeper ACP protocol—detailing every configuration step, key differences, shortcuts, and common pitfalls so you can choose the best workflow for your development needs.
This guide explains the five fundamental concepts—Agent, Harness, Protocol, Session, and Orchestration—through definitions, comparisons, concrete code examples, diagrams, and practical challenges, showing how they interrelate to enable safe and controllable multi‑agent AI workflows.
This article explains how the Agent Client Protocol (ACP) standardizes communication between AI coding agents and editors or messaging platforms, describes OpenClaw's acpx plugin that connects ACP to Discord and Telegram, and provides detailed configuration, command reference, comparison with sub‑agents, practical use cases, and troubleshooting guidance.
OpenClaw released two back‑to‑back major versions that add a plug‑in ContextEngine, persistent ACP bindings, GPT‑5.4 and Gemini integration, multi‑stage Docker slim images, SecretRef authentication, a built‑in backup system, and over a dozen security hardenings, marking a comprehensive architecture‑to‑security upgrade.
This guide walks you through installing Qoder IDE, adding the OpenClaw skill, enabling the ACP protocol, configuring Qoder CLI with your API token, and using simple /acp commands to let OpenClaw delegate coding tasks to Qoder without leaving your chat interface.
This guide explains how to integrate Claude Code (or Codex) into JetBrains IDEA using the Agent Client Protocol (ACP), covering plugin installation, JSON configuration, adapter setup, MCP enabling, and the benefits of a unified AI‑coding workflow.
This article details JetBrains' journey from early AI plugins to a platform‑wide AI architecture, covering challenges like prompt‑engineering dependence, technical debt in the IntelliJ Platform, the design of the Agent Client Protocol (ACP), and future AI‑driven features such as EmbArk, ReCap, and Ask Settings.
This article examines how a leading global industrial group leveraged a cloud‑native platform to design a disaster‑recovery solution that meets a sub‑2‑hour RTO and a 1‑minute RPO, detailing architecture, data‑layer strategies, middleware replication, application and access‑layer handling, and operational best practices.
