OpenACP is a self-hosted bridge for controlling AI coding agents from messaging platforms. It connects agents such as Claude Code, Codex, Gemini, and Cursor to Telegram, Discord, and Slack through the Agent Client Protocol. The project lets users send a chat message, launch or continue an agent session, stream tool calls and results, and review code work in real time. It is useful for developers who want to manage coding agents from a phone, team chat, or remote environment without staying inside a terminal. OpenACP emphasizes user ownership, since the bridge runs on the user’s machine with the user’s keys and codebase. Its main value is turning messaging apps into practical control surfaces for remote, visible, and multi-agent software development.
