I've been using AI coding agents (Claude Code, Codex, Cursor, Devin) for a while. One thing that always bugged me: I have to open an IDE every time I want to talk to my agent. What if I just want to kick off a task from my phone?
So I built acp-connector. It's a bridge that connects Telegram/Discord to any client compatible with the Agent Client Protocol (ACP). Neovim, OpenCode, Codex, Claude Code, Antigravity, Devin, Cursor, and many more.
What you can do with it
- Talk to your agent from your phone, no IDE needed
- Schedule tasks with cron jobs ("every day at 9am, summarize my PRs")
- Create reusable routines with a single command
- Integrate with scripts or CI/CD via HTTP
- Manage sessions from chat (/new, /sessions, /session)
- Send images and files
- Approve permissions with inline buttons
The best part: you're not locked to one agent. If you switch from Claude to Codex or try something new, the bridge keeps working.
