This skill should be used when the user wants to "write agent code", "build an agent with ADK", "add a tool", "create a callback", "define an agent", "use state management" — in a project that needs ADK (Agent Development Kit) API patterns and code examples. It provides a quick reference for agent t

ADK Code Reference

Activate /google-agents-cli-workflow first for required development phases and scaffolding steps.

1. Study Recipes (No Project Needed)

Python — read the topic index in references/samples.md before answering "how do I build X". Worked implementations exist for: sandboxed/per-user code execution, agent-loadable SKILL.md skills, cross-session memory, approval gates before risky actions, tool guardrails, per-user credentials, and scheduled/event-driven runs.

Go — read the upstream examples/. clone the repo and read the one matching the capability you need before implementing it.

2. Prerequisites for Writing Code

Do NOT write agent code until a project is scaffolded.

  1. Verify project: run agents-cli info (proceed if config exists).
  2. New project: run agents-cli scaffold create <name> — add --agent adk_go for Go.
  3. Existing code: run agents-cli scaffold enhance ..

Quick Reference — Most Common Patterns

See references/adk-python.md and references/adk-go.md for Python and Go code examples, respectively.

References

Use the cheatsheets for common patterns. For deep knowledge, fetch the docs index or inspect the installed package.
