About Symposium

Symposium is a set of components that make AI agents work better. These components are compatible with any ACP-based editing system, including Zed, VSCode (with our plugin), and IntelliJ and NeoVim (coming soon).

We focus on three areas:

Rust Expertise

Built-in capabilities for understanding Rust language, errors, and idioms.

Ecosystem-Powered Knowledge

Crate authors provide specialized AI tooling through Cargo.toml metadata, bringing domain knowledge directly to the agent.

  • Crate-provided skills, context, and capabilities

Rich Collaboration

Interactive patterns for human-AI partnership beyond simple text exchanges.

Open Source Community

Symposium is an open-source project and we are actively soliciting contributors. We welcome users as well, but given the exploratory nature of Symposium, expect frequent changes. Currently, the only way to install Symposium is from source.

We maintain a code of conduct and operate as an independent community focused on exploring what AI has to offer for software development.
