The Universal Remote Control for AI

Official Schedule Context

Every AI agent today is effectively stranded on the machine it runs on, reachable only through

custom wrappers with no industry standard way in. This talk introduces work being done on the Agent

Client Protocol to add a universal remote transport: a single /acp endpoint supporting both

Streamable HTTP and WebSocket, deliberately aligned with MCP Streamable HTTP so the two protocols

share an approach. When you pair ACP's remote transport with MCP's own Streamable HTTP support,

something powerful emerges — the agent workload becomes location-independent, free to run on a

laptop, a container, or a cloud VM while any client reaches in through open, interoperable

standards. No more vendor lock-in on where your agent lives or who can talk to it. Come see how two

open protocols, snapped together, become the universal remote control for agent i/o.
