# Google ADK

Google's open-source Agent Development Kit for building multi-agent systems with Python, TypeScript, Go, and Java.

## Agent Decision Summary
- Risk level: moderate
- Source confidence: medium
- Recommended workflows: developer workflow, production agent
- Permission surface: low explicit permission surface in metadata
- Agent JSON: https://www.openagent.bot/agents/google-adk.agent.json

## What It Does
Google ADK is a agent in the agents category. Google's open-source Agent Development Kit for building multi-agent systems with Python, TypeScript, Go, and Java.

## How To Evaluate
Evaluate Google ADK by starting from the official sources, checking its interface surface, and running one narrow workflow before expanding scope.


## Fit Matrix
- Browser automation: partial. Google ADK has at least one signal for browser automation, but should be checked against a real task before adoption. Required check: Run one non-sensitive website task and inspect clicks, waits, retries, and changed URLs.
- Coding agent workflow: partial. Google ADK has at least one signal for coding agent workflow, but should be checked against a real task before adoption. Required check: Run a small repository change and inspect the diff, tests, and rollback path.
- Reusable skill workflow: partial. Google ADK has at least one signal for reusable skill workflow, but should be checked against a real task before adoption. Required check: Run one skill end to end and check whether it produces evidence or structured output.
- Connector or protocol layer: weak. Google ADK is not primarily positioned for connector or protocol layer in the current metadata. Required check: Connect one low-risk service, then inspect schemas, auth scope, errors, and logs.
- Evaluation and observability: weak. Google ADK is not primarily positioned for evaluation and observability in the current metadata. Required check: Add one repeatable test case and confirm results can run again in review or CI.
- Local or private AI stack: weak. Google ADK is not primarily positioned for local or private ai stack in the current metadata. Required check: Verify hardware requirements, data path, storage, and whether all calls stay in your environment.
