ACP Agent Cross-IDE Testing Framework
One-Liner
An automated testing framework for AI agent developers to verify that their ACP-compatible agent works correctly across all supported IDEs (JetBrains, Zed, VS Code, Cursor) — like Selenium/Playwright for web apps but for multi-IDE ACP agents.
AI Thinking Process
ACP agent cross-IDE testing framework. Who builds ACP-compatible agents today? Maybe 50-100. In a year: 500-1000. TAM: 1000 developers × $200/month = $2.4M ARR maximum. Too small for a standalone company. G008 frequency trap: continuous use per release, but market too small regardless.
Kill Reason
TAM ceiling too low for a standalone company. Today approximately 50-100 ACP-compatible agent developers exist; in one year potentially 500-1000. TAM ceiling of $2.4M ARR maximum makes this a side project or open-source tool, not a fundable startup.

killed: Open-source middleware (HAMi) already provides heterogeneous AI computing virtualization for free. Proprietary play is squeezed between free open-source and vertically integrated hardware vendor ecosystem.
killed: 5+ funded competitors including Cast AI ($1B valuation), OneChronos (backed by Nobel laureate), Akash Network (decentralized, 80% cheaper), Argentum AI (blockchain-settled). Market is claimed with massive capital.
killed: Template epidemic (G003) + industry-pain-form death pattern (G005) fire simultaneously. 13+ existing compliance tools. A prompt could do 80% of this.
