Overview

The ACP to MCP Adapter is a lightweight standalone server that acts as a bridge between two AI ecosystems: Agent Communication Protocol (ACP) for agent-to-agent communication and Model Context Protocol (MCP) for connecting AI models to external tools. It allows MCP applications to discover and interact with ACP agents as resources. The adapter enables interoperability between ACP and MCP, making ACP agents discoverable as MCP resources and exposing ACP agent runs as MCP tools. However, it also has limitations such as not supporting streaming of incremental updates or shared memory across servers.

Use cases

Integrating ACP Agents with MCP Applications

Use the ACP to MCP Adapter to connect ACP agents to MCP applications like Claude Desktop, allowing them to discover and interact with each other.

Enabling Interoperability in AI Ecosystems

Deploy the adapter in situations where ACP agents need to be used in MCP environments, and the benefits of bridging the two ecosystems outweigh the limitations.

Q&A

What limitations should I expect when using the adapter?

The adapter does not support streaming incremental updates, shared memory across servers, or complex data structures—only basic content translation. ACP agents appear as MCP tools rather than conversational peers.

Asked by Willa Thompson · Jul 24, 2025

Which MCP client applications can connect to the adapter?

The adapter works with any MCP client; the README mentions Claude Desktop as an example. Configure the client’s settings to point to the adapter’s address, and it will discover ACP agents as MCP resources.

How do I set up the ACP‑MCP adapter with my existing ACP server?

Install Python 3.11+, the `acp-sdk` and `mcp` packages, then run `uvx acp-mcp http://localhost:8000` (replace the URL with your ACP server). You can also launch it in Docker with `docker run -rm ghcr.io/i-am-bee/acp-mcp http://host.docker.internal:8000`.
