FAQ
What are the prerequisites for using this skill?
To use this skill, you need a target runtime (Python, Java, or Go), the ADK installed along with any required model or provider SDKs, a test runner for unit tests, and access to a Google Cloud project if deploying.
Can this skill be used for multi-agent systems?
Yes, the skill supports both single-agent and multi-agent system architectures, including orchestration and state management strategies such as Memory Bank or external stores.
What is the recommended process for using this skill?
The recommended process includes clarifying agent goals and constraints, proposing an architecture, scaffolding the agent's structure, incrementally implementing tools with validation, adding operational guardrails, and validating the solution locally before deployment.
What kind of deployment support does this skill provide?
This skill provides deployment instructions, a validation checklist, and post-deploy health checks for users who need to deploy their ADK agents to environments such as Google Cloud.
Are there any specific error handling practices in place?
Yes, the skill emphasizes structured error handling with retries, timeouts, logging, and safe error messages for build/test failures, tool/runtime errors, and deployment failures.
