In the previous blog post, we introduced CLI Runners — a way to use your existing AI subscriptions (Claude Pro, Copilot, Gemini, etc.) directly inside IntelliJ by piping prompts to external CLI tools. CLI Runners solved the "double-paying" problem, but they communicate through plain text over stdin/stdout. That works, but it's a bit like having a conversation by passing notes under a door.

ACP Runners open that door. Instead of unstructured text, they use the Agent Communication Protocol — a structured, bidirectional communication layer built on JSON-RPC 2.0 — to turn your IDE into a proper agent hub.

You're paying for Claude Pro. You've got a GitHub Copilot seat. Maybe you're subscribed to Google Gemini or Kimi too. But when you want to use these tools for serious coding work, you're jumping between terminal windows, browser tabs, and your IDE — context-switching constantly.

What if you could route all of that through a single interface inside IntelliJ, using the subscriptions you already pay for?

That's exactly what CLI Runners in DevoxxGenie do.
