Google Codelab: Agent Developer Kit From Beginner to Expert

Welcome to the ADK Master Class Your Journey into Multi-Agent Systems You're about to step into the exciting world of AI agents. Forget simple chatbots that just answer questions. We're diving deep into the Agent Development Kit (ADK) to build sophisticated, autonomous systems that can reason, plan, and use tools to accomplish complex tasks. Date: Tuesday, July 7 2026 Time: 9:00 - 11:00am MDT What to expect: Light breakfast and a hands-on workshop. Important: To participate, you must bring your own laptop and power cable. The activities are intended for laptops and cannot be completed on a tablet or phone. By the end of this workshop you will be able to: Build Your First AI Agent: Go from zero to a fully functional agent that can understand a user's needs, use tools like Google Search, and generate detailed, helpful responses. Master Custom Tools: Unlock the true power of agents by connecting them to your own custom functions and APIs. You'll teach your agent to fetch real-time data, like live weather forecasts. Construct Multi-Agent Systems: Learn the "Agent-as-a-Tool" pattern, a revolutionary concept where agents delegate tasks to other specialized agents, creating a team of AI experts that work together. Orchestrate Complex Workflows: Go beyond simple delegation and master advanced patterns like Routers, Sequential Chains, Loops, and Parallel Execution to build robust, efficient, and intelligent applications that can handle almost any requests. Give Your Agents Memory: Understand the critical role of conversational memory, enabling your agents to handle follow-up questions, learn from feedback, and manage multi-step tasks seamlessly.
