agent-shell is an Emacs Lisp package that provides a native Emacs buffer interface for interacting with LLM coding agents (Claude Code, OpenAI Codex, Gemini, Goose, etc.) via the Agent Client Protocol (ACP). It brings agent-driven AI assistance directly into the Emacs editing environment.
Use cases
- chat with claude code from emacs
- run openai codex agent inside an emacs buffer
- interact with gemini cli agent in emacs
- use goose ai agent from emacs
- emacs interface for llm coding agents via acp
- delegate coding tasks to an ai agent without leaving emacs
When to choose
- you live in Emacs and want AI agent assistance in your editor
- you want a native Emacs UI for ACP-compatible agents like Claude Code or Codex
- you prefer elisp-extensible, keyboard-driven agent interaction over standalone AI apps
When to avoid
- you don't use Emacs
- you need a GUI or web-based AI chat client
- your agent does not support the Agent Client Protocol
