+description: Announcement that the ACP Registry RFD has been completed and the registry is stabilized.

+
+**Published:** March 9, 2026
+
+The ACP Registry RFD has moved to Completed and the initial version of the registry is stabilized.
+
+The registry gives ACP clients a standard way to discover, install, and configure compatible agents. It introduces a curated catalog and a shared manifest format so editors and other clients do not need to invent their own integration metadata.
+
+If you want to explore the shipped experience, start with [ACP Registry](/get-started/registry). For the design history and rationale, see the [ACP Agent Registry RFD](/rfds/acp-agent-registry).

+title: Implementation information for agents and clients

+description: Protocol update introducing optional implementation metadata during initialization.
+---
+
+**Published:** October 24, 2025
+
+ACP now allows agents and clients to provide information about themselves to the other party during initialization.
+
+The [InitializeRequest](/protocol/schema#initializerequest) message now includes an optional clientInfo field, and the [InitializeResponse](/protocol/schema#initializeresponse) message includes an optional agentInfo field.
+
+This information can be used by clients to show users which agent is running and what version, by both sides to track usage metrics for which agents and clients are most popular among their users, and to help track down issues tied to particular implementation versions.
+
+This follows the existing pattern laid out in the [Model Context Protocol](https://modelcontextprotocol.io/specification/2025-06-18/basic/lifecycle#initialization).
+
+This is being introduced as an optional field for now for backwards compatibility. It is possible it will be made required in a future version of the protocol, like MCP, so that both sides can count on this information being available.
+
+For the user-facing protocol guide, see [Implementation Information](/protocol/initialization#implementation-information).

+description: Governance announcement about Sergey Ignatov joining ACP as a Lead Maintainer.
+---
+
+**Published:** February 18, 2026
+
+It is with great pleasure that I announce that Sergey Ignatov, from JetBrains, will be joining me as a Lead Maintainer for ACP. Agus Zubiaga will remain a key part of the leadership group as a Core Maintainer.
+
+This is in recognition of Sergey’s many contributions to the protocol. We would not be where we are today without his efforts. In the past few months, Zed and JetBrains have been able to collaborate closely on the protocol, and it is time to reflect that fact more formally in our governance structure.
+
+I have enjoyed the chance to work with Sergey and the entire JetBrains team. There is still much work to be done, but with all of the agent and client teams working together, I am confident we can continue to make the ACP vision a reality: allowing you to collaborate with the agent or agents you love wherever you are already working.

 RFD proposals are merged into the "Draft" section if a core team member decides to champion them. The champion becomes the point-of-contact and will work with authors to make it reality. Once in draft, implementation may begin (properly feature-gated with the RFD name). Implementation can also begin at a particular SDK or agent/client level to prove out the design for better review and feedback before broader adoption.
