Agents

Everything in Agent Platform starts with an agent, so that’s where we’ll start too. In this part we’ll build one with ADK — Google’s open-source framework for defining agent logic, wiring up tools, and orchestrating it all in Python — and then deploy it to the Agent Platform runtime so it’s running in the cloud, not just on your laptop. To keep it more interesting than the usual Hello World, I went with a little stock-trading agent, but the steps are the same whatever you’re building. Let’s get into it.
