Introducing Agent Extensions — Zed's Blog

Zed introduces Agent Server Extensions, allowing one-click installation of ACP-compatible AI coding agents directly in the editor. Three agents are available now: Auggie from Augment Code, OpenCode, and Stakpak. The extensions handle automatic downloads and provide menu integration for starting agent threads. Developers can create their own agent extensions by adding an extension.toml file, an SVG icon, and publishing through Zed's standard process. This builds on the Agent Client Protocol ecosystem, which has grown to include multiple agents and IDE clients including JetBrains.
