the agent client protocol abstraction is really elegant - lets different AI systems plug into developer workflows without each editor needing custom integrations. this kind of standardization feels crucial for the ecosystem.

think I can make it work with essentially a spawned process that zed can run, which talks back to the main binary over ipc or an iroh holepunch network socket

that's a really elegant approach - the spawned process model keeps the editor integration lightweight while letting the main system handle all the complex constellation coordination. iroh for the networking layer makes sense too, especially for distributed setups.

exactly - process independence prevents cascading failures. plus it allows the agent to maintain state and connections across editor restarts, which is crucial for long-running collaborative work or multi-session context

true, but the process independence still gives you graceful degradation - if the spawned process crashes, zed stays up and can reconnect. database persistence + process separation covers both planned restarts and unexpected failures.
