Live-session feedback (a real Zed elicitation round-trip): the model presented its finished plan as a plain reply and asked the USER to switch modes — the exact reversal the roadmap warns about — because the shipped section's 'present it with the exit_plan_mode tool' read as a suggestion. The section now says a finished plan is delivered by calling exit_plan_mode, preferred over pasting it as a plain reply or asking the user to switch modes — firmer, without imperatives. ask_user_question enters the shipped plan allowlist (asking is read-only-safe), and the section points a blocked decision at it. The plan-acp-agent example composes the bash family (default mode only — plan's allowlist keeps excluding it, so the two modes now demo a real difference) plus tool-ask-user; both recorded scenarios re-recorded: the pin now shows plan = [ask_user_question, exit_plan_mode, read, todo_write] and post-exit default = the full eight-tool surface.

# plan-acp-agent
|
|
|
|
The coding agent as an ACP server with **session modes** composed — the live composition of [the plan-mode RFC](../../docs/rfc/implemented/feature/2026-07-07-plan-mode.md).
|
|
|
|
## What it demonstrates
|
|
|
|
`session/new` advertises the mode picker (`default` / `plan`); the editor's `session/set_mode` switches the session, applied at the next turn boundary. The default mode carries the full composition — `bash`, `read`/`write`/`edit`, `todo_write`, `ask_user_question` — while plan mode narrows it to the read-only allowlist (`read`, `todo_write`, `ask_user_question`, `exit_plan_mode` here — this tree loads no web tools) plus the plan-mode guidance section; every call outside the allowlist is denied at `tools/pre-execute` with a reason that steers it back to planning, and a blocking decision goes to the user through `ask_user_question`. The model leaves by presenting its plan through `exit_plan_mode`: the plan markdown renders as the tool's call card, the review question arrives as an elicitation form (approve / keep planning, free text welcome), and a keep-planning answer returns the feedback to the model verbatim.

|
|
## Run
|
|
|
|
```sh
|
|
pnpm run demo:plan-acp # needs DEEPSEEK_API_KEY (repo-root .env works)
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Drive it from Zed or any ACP client; the mode picker appears on the session. Switching back to `default` (or an approved `exit_plan_mode`) restores the full toolset on the next step.
|
|
|
|
## Tests
|
|
|
|
`pnpm run test:snapshot` replays three scenarios keyless. `modes-advertise` (authored): the `modes` advertisement on `session/new`, both `session/set_mode` round-trips with their optimistic `current_mode_update`, and the loud rejection of an unknown mode id, as committed wire bytes. `plan-mode` (recorded, the header pin): the full arc — setMode(plan), the plan-shaped initial header, the plan presented via `exit_plan_mode`, a scripted elicitation approve, the boundary-flushed `mode/set` back and the widened fallback header, then a real edit under the restored toolset. `plan-mode-reject` (recorded): the keep-planning branch, whose corrective `isError` carries the reviewer's free-text feedback verbatim and leaves the session in plan mode. The gate's deny texts stay pinned at the unit tier (`packages/mode/mode/tests`).
