acpx is a headless command-line client for the Agent Client Protocol (ACP) that lets users drive coding agents like Codex, Claude Code, and Gemini CLI from the terminal. It provides persistent multi-turn sessions, one-shot runs, prompt queuing, and structured JSON event output for automation.
Use cases
- drive coding agents from scripts and CI
- run persistent multi-turn AI coding sessions in a repo
- pipe structured agent events into automation with jq
- run parallel named agent workstreams in one repository
- switch between coding agents with one uniform CLI
When to avoid
- you need a graphical chat interface for coding agents
- you rely on an agent that has no ACP server or adapter
- you need a stable, frozen CLI contract — acpx is pre-1.0 and evolving
