Match claude-agent-acp / codex-acp: the bash tool_call title IS the command (an execute card hides rawInput), the model description rides as a content text block above the card, and the completed card carries an exit-status pill via _meta.terminal_exit. Bridge fixes found in review of the prior terminal-card commit: - tool_call_update.content is OMITTED in terminal mode (an ACP update.content REPLACES the call's content collection in Zed, so the fenced ```console block would clobber the terminal content block). - terminal.output preserves RAW newlines (terminal renderers rely on exact bytes); only the fenced fallback trims trailing blank lines. - a relative workdir is resolved against the session cwd for the card header, matching where the command actually ran. - result-side terminal output is gated on the pending call having registered a terminal (no orphan _meta.terminal_output for a terminal Zed never made). The exit pill is recovered by parsing renderResult's status markers (the pure presentResult seam sees only content blocks); a round-trip test pins the parse to the marker emission. Neutral ToolTerminal gains exitCode/signal; widened ToolCallPresentation with a content block. Docs (RFC + 3 READMEs) updated; with-key e2e verifies the card + exit pill against the real model.
acp-agent example
The DeepSeek Harness coding agent exposed as an Agent Client Protocol (ACP) server over JSON-RPC stdio — drive it from Zed or any other ACP client.
pnpm run demo:acp # needs DEEPSEEK_API_KEY (repo-root .env or env)
This boots @deepseek-ai/dsh-acp over the shared provider/tool core (../base.yml), with agent-loop configured with no pre-created agents (ACP session/new creates them on demand) and JSONL session persistence (so session/load works).
stdout is the protocol
This example loads no stdout logger — stdout carries the JSON-RPC frames, and any other write corrupts them. Do not add @cordisjs/plugin-logger-console or a stdio UI here. Use a stderr exporter if you need logs.
Zed configuration
Add to your Zed settings.json under agent_servers:
{
"agent_servers": {
"DeepSeek Harness": {
"command": "pnpm",
"args": ["run", "demo:acp"],
"env": { "DEEPSEEK_API_KEY": "sk-…" }
}
}
}
The editor sets each session's cwd to the project it opens; the agent's bash tools run there (see the per-session cwd note in packages/acp), so the server does not need to be launched in the workspace.
MVP limitations
The bridge supports N concurrent sessions per connection, each in its own workspace cwd (RFC 011). Remaining limits: text-only prompts, additionalDirectories rejected (a session operates in its single cwd), and the tool-permission gate is deferred (TODO(rfc010-permission-gate) — tools run with the executor's full authority). See packages/acp/README.md for the full contract.
