Integrate the Agent Communication Protocol (ACP) documentation directly into Cursor, an AI-powered IDE. Cursor’s assistant will reference ACP docs, providing helpful code suggestions as you work.

This method also works with other IDEs like VSCode, Zed, and Windsurf, etc.

​
Step 1: Install Cursor

  • Download and install Cursor.
  • Open the application.

​
Step 2: Add ACP Docs to Cursor

  1. Open Cursor settings.
  2. Navigate to Features → Docs.
  3. Click ”+ Add new doc”.
  4. Enter the ACP docs URL:
    https://agentcommunicationprotocol.dev/llms-full.txt
  5. Enter a recognizable name (e.g., “ACP”) and click “Confirm”.
Cursor will index the ACP docs automatically.

​
Step 3: Use ACP Docs in Cursor

With ACP docs integrated, use Cursor’s assistant to get quick references. Start typing @ and select your ACP documentation (based on the name you provided).

For example:

@ACP Create a simple agent that reverses user input

Cursor’s assistant will then provide relevant answers and code examples.

Always double-check the generated code, as it might contain inaccuracies. Good practices include:

  • Breaking tasks into smaller parts.
  • Writing unit tests.
  • Reviewing and understanding generated code carefully.
  • Referring back to these docs to thoroughly understand the ACP protocol.
