ACP Protocol
Learn how ACP powers agent interoperability in BeeAI
BeeAI Platform is built on the
Agent Communication Protocol (ACP)
, an open standard designed to enable smooth communication between AI agents, regardless of what framework they’re built on.
What is ACP?
ACP defines a minimal RESTful API for agent communication, supporting:
Synchronous and asynchronous messaging with streaming capabilities
Multimodal content (text, images, files, artifacts)
Framework-agnostic design that works with any agent implementation
Lightweight requirements for easy adoption
How BeeAI Uses ACP
As the official implementation of ACP, BeeAI leverages the protocol to:
Discover agents from any ACP-compliant framework
Run agents locally with your preferred LLM provider
Orchestrate workflows by chaining agents together
Maintain consistency across different agent types and sources
