What is the ACP MCP server?

Connect ACP to Claude, Cursor or any other MCP client and it stops being a tab you switch to. A bridge server that connects Agent Communication Protocol (ACP) agents with Model Context Protocol (MCP) clients, enabling seamless integration between ACP-based AI agents and MCP-compatible tools like Claude Desktop. The acp mcp server is what makes that connection.

Available tools

The toolset is worth reading before you wire it up, because it tells you what the integration is really for:

  • Installation — The Installation tool exposed by this server

Installation

for on PyPI is all you need. Most clients run it directly, so configuration is a few lines and a restart.

Credentials and setup notes

Configuration is passed through the environment: ACP_BASE_URL. Treat anything key-shaped as a real credential — scope it to the minimum the server needs, and rotate it if it ever lands in a shared config.

Where it fits

Among the developer tooling options, the useful question is rarely "what can it do" but "what does it cost you to run" — permissions, credentials, and how much of your context its toolset consumes. ACP's toolset — Installation — is a fair guide to whether it matches your workflow. It is maintained by GongRzhe; worth a glance at recent repository activity before you build anything load-bearing on it.

SyncDev reviews every entry in this directory against the project's own documentation before publishing, and revisits them as servers change.

Worth knowing first

  • It runs with your machine's permissions. That is convenient and also the reason to think about what you point it at before you approve a tool call.
  • Missing credentials fail quietly in some clients — if no tools show up, check the environment block first.
  • Keep per-call confirmation enabled while you learn its behaviour; it is the cheapest safeguard you have.

Frequently asked questions

It connects ACP to MCP-compatible AI assistants such as Claude and Cursor, exposing 1 tool (Installation) that the assistant can call on your behalf. Instead of copying data back and forth by hand, the assistant works with ACP directly.
