Google Agent Development Kit (ADK)

EcosystemVerified

Google's open-source framework for building, evaluating, and deploying multi-step AI agents, with UCP commerce integration examples.

Google Agent Development Kit (ADK) is an open-source Python framework for building, evaluating, and deploying AI agents. It provides primitives for multi-step agent workflows, tool use, and multi-agent systems. ADK is used in the official UCP A2A sample to build a UCP-compatible shopping agent, making it the canonical framework for building Google-ecosystem-compatible UCP agents. ADK integrates with the A2A Protocol for agent discovery and communication.

Why This Matters for UCP

Google ADK is the official framework for building UCP-compatible AI agents, used in the reference A2A sample and recommended for developers building Gemini-compatible shopping agents.
