It explains the model parameter, supported model providers (Gemini, Vertex AI, Anthropic Claude, Ollama, vLLM, LiteLLM, Apigee), and model-specific configuration options including generation parameters and authentication. The Agent Development Kit (ADK) is designed for flexibility, allowing you to integrate various Large Language Models (LLMs) into your agents. Start with agents and tools and grow into sophisticated multi-agent systems, ADK allows developers to build everything from personal AI assistants. Explore ADK Python 2. 0 is now available Build production agents, not prototypes. Available in Python. This repository contains a series of progressively complex examples demonstrating how to build AI agents using the Google Agent Development Kit (ADK). When I first published this guide in April 2025, ADK was promising but raw. A handful of agent types, basic tooling, and a lot of “coming soon” energy. Ten months and twenty-five releases.
