adk-fluent

adk-fluent

Fluent builder API for Google's Agent Development Kit (ADK). Reduces agent creation from 22+ lines to 1-3 lines while producing identical native ADK objects.

Monorepo: This repository is a dual-language monorepo. The Python package (adk-fluent) lives in python/ and the TypeScript package (adk-fluent-ts) lives in ts/. Shared generation tooling, manifests, and seeds live in shared/. Both packages are generated from the same manifest and expose the same surface area.

Packages

adk-fluent is released as two sibling packages driven by a single shared manifest. Pick the language you ship in — both expose the same builders, operators, and namespaces.

Shared generator scripts, ADK scan manifests, and seed files live in shared/. The Python and TypeScript builders are both regenerated from shared/manifest.json + shared/seeds/seed.toml, so API parity is enforced at generation time.

Install

Python (adk-fluent)

pip install adk-fluent

Autocomplete works immediately -- the package ships with .pyi type stubs for every builder. Type Agent("name"). and your IDE shows all available methods with type hints.

TypeScript (adk-fluent-ts)

The TypeScript port mirrors the Python API surface with method-chained operators (.then(), .parallel(), .times(), .fallback(), .outputAs()).

# From the monorepo (until the package is published to npm)
cd ts
npm install
npm run build

import { Agent, Pipeline } from "adk-fluent-ts";

const pipeline = new Agent("writer", "gemini-2.5-flash")
  .instruct("Write a draft about {topic}.")
  .writes("draft")
  .then(
    new Agent("reviewer", "gemini-2.5-flash")
      .instruct("Review the draft: {draft}")
      .writes("feedback"),
  )
  .build();

See ts/README.md for the full TypeScript API, the operator → method-chain mapping, and ts/examples/ for runnable recipes. The rest of this README focuses on the Python package.

Full walkthrough: Getting Started guide covers install, credentials, first agent, and IDE setup.

Optional Extras

Install additional capabilities as needed:

pip install adk-fluent[a2a]            # A2A remote agent-to-agent communication
pip install adk-fluent[yaml]           # .to_yaml() / .from_yaml() serialization
pip install adk-fluent[rich]           # Rich terminal output for .explain()
pip install adk-fluent[search]         # BM25-indexed tool discovery (T.search)
pip install adk-fluent[pii]            # PII detection guard (G.pii with Cloud DLP)
pip install adk-fluent[observability]  # OpenTelemetry tracing and metrics
pip install adk-fluent[dev]            # Development tools (pytest, ruff, pyright)
pip install adk-fluent[docs]           # Documentation build (Sphinx, Furo)

Combine extras: pip install adk-fluent[a2a,yaml,rich]

A2UI (Agent-to-UI): The UI namespace for declarative agent UIs ships with the core package -- no extra install needed. See the A2UI guide for component reference and examples. The full A2UI toolset (SendA2uiToClientToolset) will be available via pip install adk-fluent[a2ui] when the a2ui-agent package is published. Until then, all UI composition, compilation, and presets work out of the box.

IDE Setup

VS Code -- install the Pylance extension (included in the Python extension pack). Autocomplete and type checking work out of the box.

PyCharm -- works automatically. The .pyi stubs are bundled in the package and PyCharm discovers them on install.

Neovim (LSP) -- use pyright as your language server. Stubs are picked up automatically.

See the Editor & AI Agent Setup guide for Claude Code, Cursor, Gemini CLI, and Copilot integration.

Discover the API

from adk_fluent import Agent

agent = Agent("demo")
agent.  # <- autocomplete shows: .model(), .instruct(), .tool(), .build(), ...

# Typos are caught at definition time, not runtime:
agent.instuction("oops")  # -> AttributeError: 'instuction' is not a recognized field.
                          #    Did you mean: 'instruction'?

# Inspect any builder's current state:
print(agent.model("gemini-2.5-flash").instruct("Help.").explain())
# Agent: demo
#   Config fields: model, instruction

# See everything available:
print(dir(agent))  # All methods including forwarded ADK fields

Quick Start

from adk_fluent import Agent

# Create an agent and get a response -- no Runner, no Session, no boilerplate
agent = Agent("helper", "gemini-2.5-flash").instruct("You are a helpful assistant.")
print(agent.ask("What is the capital of France?"))
# => The capital of France is Paris.

.ask() handles Runner, Session, and cleanup internally. One line to define, one line to run. See the Getting Started guide for credentials setup and more examples.

Try without an API key — verify the library works using .mock():

from adk_fluent import Agent

agent = Agent("demo", "gemini-2.5-flash").instruct("You are helpful.").mock(["Hello! How can I help?"])
print(agent.ask("Hi"))
# => Hello! How can I help?

For ADK integration, .build() returns the native ADK object:

from adk_fluent import Agent, Pipeline, FanOut, Loop

# Simple agent -- returns a native LlmAgent
agent = Agent("helper", "gemini-2.5-flash").instruct("You are a helpful assistant.").build()

# Pipeline -- sequential agents
pipeline = (
    Pipeline("research")
    .step(Agent("searcher", "gemini-2.5-flash").instruct("Search for information."))
    .step(Agent("writer", "gemini-2.5-flash").instruct("Write a summary."))
    .build()
)

# Fan-out -- parallel agents
fanout = (
    FanOut("parallel_research")
    .branch(Agent("web", "gemini-2.5-flash").instruct("Search the web."))
    .branch(Agent("papers", "gemini-2.5-flash").instruct("Search papers."))
    .build()
)

# Loop -- iterative refinement
loop = (
    Loop("refine")
    .step(Agent("writer", "gemini-2.5-flash").instruct("Write draft."))
    .step(Agent("critic", "gemini-2.5-flash").instruct("Critique."))
    .max_iterations(3)
    .build()
)

Every .build() returns a real ADK object (LlmAgent, SequentialAgent, etc.). Fully compatible with adk web, adk run, and adk deploy.

Two Styles, Same Result

Every workflow can be expressed two ways -- the explicit builder API or the expression operators. Both produce identical ADK objects:

# Explicit builder style — readable, IDE-friendly
pipeline = (
    Pipeline("research")
    .step(Agent("web", "gemini-2.5-flash").instruct("Search web.").outputs("web_data"))
    .step(Agent("analyst", "gemini-2.5-flash").instruct("Analyze {web_data}."))
    .build()
)

# Operator style — compact, composable
pipeline = (
    Agent("web", "gemini-2.5-flash").instruct("Search web.").outputs("web_data")
    >> Agent("analyst", "gemini-2.5-flash").instruct("Analyze {web_data}.")
).build()

The builder style shines for complex multi-step workflows where each step is configured with callbacks, tools, and context. The operator style excels at composing reusable sub-expressions:

# Complex builder-style pipeline with tools and callbacks
pipeline = (
    Pipeline("customer_support")
    .step(
        Agent("classifier", "gemini-2.5-flash")
        .instruct("Classify the customer's intent.")
        .outputs("intent")
        .before_model(log_fn)
    )
    .step(
        Agent("resolver", "gemini-2.5-flash")
        .instruct("Resolve the {intent} issue.")
        .tool(lookup_customer)
        .tool(create_ticket)
        .history("none")
    )
    .step(
        Agent("responder", "gemini-2.5-flash")
        .instruct("Draft a response to the customer.")
        .after_model(audit_fn)
    )
    .build()
)

# Same complexity, composed from reusable parts with operators
classify = Agent("classifier", "gemini-2.5-flash").instruct("Classify intent.").outputs("intent")
resolve = Agent("resolver", "gemini-2.5-flash").instruct("Resolve {intent}.").tool(lookup_customer)
respond = Agent("responder", "gemini-2.5-flash").instruct("Draft response.")

support_pipeline = classify >> resolve >> respond
# Reuse sub-expressions in different pipelines
escalation_pipeline = classify >> Agent("escalate", "gemini-2.5-flash").instruct("Escalate.")

Pipeline Architecture

Three Pathways

Once you know the builder basics, adk-fluent offers three distinct development pathways -- a fork in the road where each branch produces native ADK objects but solves different problems at different abstraction levels. See the Decision Guide for interactive flowcharts to pick the right path.

     Complex routing       libraries             DevOps runtimes
     Dynamic topologies    Cross-team sharing    Research harnesses

Pipeline Path -- Python-First Builders

The core path. Full Python control with expression operators and 9 namespace modules. Build any topology -- sequential, parallel, loops, routing, fallbacks -- with type-checked, IDE-friendly builders.

from adk_fluent import Agent, S, C, until

# Compose any topology with operators
research = (
    S.capture("query")
    >> Agent("planner", "gemini-2.5-flash").instruct("Decompose the query.").writes("plan")
    >> (Agent("web", "gemini-2.5-flash").instruct("Search web.").writes("web")
        | Agent("papers", "gemini-2.5-flash").instruct("Search papers.").writes("papers"))
    >> Agent("writer", "gemini-2.5-pro").instruct("Synthesize {web} and {papers}.")
)

# Loops, routing, fallbacks, typed output -- all composable
loop = (writer >> critic) * until(lambda s: s.get("score", 0) >= 0.8, max=3)
routed = classifier >> Route("intent").eq("billing", billing).otherwise(general)
safe = fast_model // strong_model  # Fallback chain

Best for: Custom workflows with complex routing, dynamic topologies, callback-heavy agents, full programmatic control. This is where most development starts.

Skills Path -- Declarative Agent Packages

Turn YAML + Markdown into executable agent graphs. Domain experts write prompts and topology; engineers inject tools and deploy. One file is simultaneously documentation, coding-agent context, and a runnable pipeline.

from adk_fluent import Skill

# Load a skill -- parses YAML into an agent graph
research = Skill("skills/research_pipeline/")

# Compose skills with the same operators as agents
pipeline = Skill("skills/research/") >> Skill("skills/writing/") >> Skill("skills/review/")

# Override models, inject tools
fast = research.model("gemini-2.5-flash").inject(web_search=my_search_fn)

Best for: Stable topologies where the main variation is prompts, models, and tools. Teams with non-Python domain experts. Reusable capability libraries.

Skills Guide · Example SKILL.md files

Harness Path -- Autonomous Coding Runtimes

Build Claude-Code-class autonomous agents with the H namespace. Five composable layers: intelligence, tools, safety, observability, and runtime.

from adk_fluent import Agent, H, C

# Intelligence + Tools
agent = (
    Agent("coder", "gemini-2.5-pro")
    .instruct("You are an expert coding assistant.")
    .tools(H.workspace("/project", diff_mode=True) + H.web() + H.git_tools("/project"))
)

# Safety + Observability + Runtime
agent = agent.harness(
    permissions=H.auto_allow("read_file", "grep_search").merge(H.ask_before("edit_file", "bash")),
    sandbox=H.workspace_only("/project"),
)

bus = H.event_bus()
repl = H.repl(agent.build(), hooks=H.hooks("/project").on_edit("ruff check {file_path}"))
await repl.run()

Best for: Agents that act autonomously -- reading codebases, editing files, running tests, managing processes. When you need permissions, sandboxing, token budgets, and observability.

Harness Guide · Full harness example

Which Path?

All three compose together. A harness can load skills for domain expertise, while pipelines define the internal agent topology:

agent = (
    Agent("coder", "gemini-2.5-pro")
    .use_skill("skills/code_review/")          # Skills for domain knowledge
    .use_skill("skills/python_best_practices/")
    .tools(H.workspace("/project") + H.web())  # Harness for autonomous capability
)
# Inside a skill, the agents are wired as pipelines with >> | * operators

Why adk-fluent

Real patterns. Real reduction. Every adk-fluent expression compiles to the same native ADK objects you'd build by hand.

The Pattern

Expression Language

Deep dive: Expression Language guide · Operator Algebra visual reference

Nine operators compose any agent topology:

Eight control loop primitives for agent orchestration:

All operators are immutable -- sub-expressions can be safely reused:

review = agent_a >> agent_b
pipeline_1 = review >> agent_c  # Independent
pipeline_2 = review >> agent_d  # Independent

How Operators Map to Agent Trees

Expression:   a >> (b | c) * 3

Agent tree:
  SequentialAgent
  +-- a (LlmAgent)
  +-- LoopAgent (max_iterations=3)
      +-- ParallelAgent
          +-- b (LlmAgent)
          +-- c (LlmAgent)

Expression:   a >> fn >> Route("key").eq("x", b).eq("y", c)

Agent tree:
  SequentialAgent
  +-- a (LlmAgent)
  +-- fn (FunctionAgent)
  +-- RoutingAgent
      +-- "x" -> b (LlmAgent)
      +-- "y" -> c (LlmAgent)

Expression:   (a | b) >> merge_fn >> writer @ Report // fallback_writer @ Report

Agent tree:
  SequentialAgent
  +-- ParallelAgent
  |   +-- a (LlmAgent)
  |   +-- b (LlmAgent)
  +-- merge_fn (FunctionAgent)
  +-- FallbackAgent
      +-- writer (LlmAgent, output_schema=Report)
      +-- fallback_writer (LlmAgent, output_schema=Report)

Function Steps

Plain Python functions compose with >> as zero-cost workflow nodes (no LLM call):

def merge_research(state):
    return {"research": state["web"] + "\n" + state["papers"]}

pipeline = web_agent >> merge_research >> writer_agent

Typed Output

@ binds a Pydantic schema as the agent's output contract:

from pydantic import BaseModel

class Report(BaseModel):
    title: str
    body: str

agent = Agent("writer").model("gemini-2.5-flash").instruct("Write.") @ Report

Fallback Chains

// tries each agent in order -- first success wins:

answer = (
    Agent("fast").model("gemini-2.0-flash").instruct("Quick answer.")
    // Agent("thorough").model("gemini-2.5-pro").instruct("Detailed answer.")
)

Conditional Loops

* until(pred) loops until a predicate on session state is satisfied:

from adk_fluent import until

loop = (
    Agent("writer").model("gemini-2.5-flash").instruct("Write.").outputs("quality")
    >> Agent("reviewer").model("gemini-2.5-flash").instruct("Review.")
) * until(lambda s: s.get("quality") == "good", max=5)

State Transforms

Deep dive: State Transforms guide

S factories return dict transforms that compose with >>:

from adk_fluent import S

pipeline = (
    (web_agent | scholar_agent)
    >> S.merge("web", "scholar", into="research")
    >> S.default(confidence=0.0)
    >> S.rename(research="input")
    >> writer_agent
)

Context Engineering (C Module)

Deep dive: Context Engineering guide · P·C·S visual reference

Control exactly what conversation history each agent sees. Prevents prompt pollution in complex DAGs:

from adk_fluent import C

pipeline = (
    Agent("classifier").outputs("intent")
    >> Agent("booker")
        .instruct("Process {intent}")
        .context(C.user_only()) # Booker sees user prompt + {intent}, but NOT classifier text
)

Common Errors

Missing required field:

Agent("x").instruct("Hi").build()
# BuilderError: Agent 'x' is missing required field 'model'
#   model: required (not set)

Fix: add .model("gemini-2.5-flash") before .build().

Typo in method name:

Agent("x").modle("gemini-2.5-flash")
# AttributeError: 'modle' is not a recognized field. Did you mean: 'model'?

The typo detector suggests the closest valid field name.

Invalid operator operand:

Agent("a") | "not an agent"
# TypeError: unsupported operand type(s) for |: 'AgentBuilder' and 'str'

Operators work with Agent, Pipeline, FanOut, Loop builders, callables, and built ADK agents.

Template variable at runtime:

# {topic} resolves from session state at runtime, not at definition time
agent = Agent("writer", "gemini-2.5-flash").instruct("Write about {topic}.")
agent.ask("hello")  # {topic} appears literally if not in state

Use .outputs("topic") on a prior agent, or pass initial state via .session().

Full error reference: Error Reference

IR, Backends, and Middleware (v4)

Deep dive: IR & Backends guide · Middleware guide · Data Flow visual reference

Builders can compile to an intermediate representation (IR) for inspection, testing, and alternative backends:

from adk_fluent import Agent, ExecutionConfig, CompactionConfig

# IR: inspect the agent tree without building
pipeline = Agent("a") >> Agent("b") >> Agent("c")
ir = pipeline.to_ir()  # Returns frozen dataclass tree

# to_app(): compile through IR to a native ADK App
app = pipeline.to_app(config=ExecutionConfig(
    app_name="my_app",
    resumable=True,
    compaction=CompactionConfig(interval=10),
))

# Middleware: app-global cross-cutting behavior
from adk_fluent import Middleware, RetryMiddleware, StructuredLogMiddleware

app = (
    Agent("a") >> Agent("b")
).middleware(RetryMiddleware(max_retries=3)).to_app()

# Data contracts: verify pipeline wiring at build time
from pydantic import BaseModel
from adk_fluent.testing import check_contracts

class Intent(BaseModel):
    category: str
    confidence: float

pipeline = Agent("classifier").produces(Intent) >> Agent("resolver").consumes(Intent)
issues = check_contracts(pipeline.to_ir())  # [] = all good

# Deterministic testing without LLM calls
from adk_fluent.testing import mock_backend, AgentHarness

harness = AgentHarness(pipeline, backend=mock_backend({
    "classifier": {"category": "billing", "confidence": 0.9},
    "resolver": "Ticket #1234 created.",
}))

# Graph visualization
print(pipeline.to_mermaid())  # Mermaid diagram source

# Tool confirmation (human-in-the-loop approval)
agent = Agent("ops").tool(deploy_fn, require_confirmation=True)

# Resource DI (hide infra params from LLM)
agent = Agent("lookup").tool(search_db).inject(db=my_database)

Deterministic Routing

Route on session state without LLM calls:

from adk_fluent import Agent
from adk_fluent._routing import Route

classifier = Agent("classify").model("gemini-2.5-flash").instruct("Classify intent.").outputs("intent")
booker = Agent("booker").model("gemini-2.5-flash").instruct("Book flights.")
info = Agent("info").model("gemini-2.5-flash").instruct("Provide info.")

# Route on exact match — zero LLM calls for routing
pipeline = classifier >> Route("intent").eq("booking", booker).eq("info", info)

# Dict shorthand
pipeline = classifier >> {"booking": booker, "info": info}

Conditional Gating

# Only runs if predicate(state) is truthy
enricher = (
    Agent("enricher")
    .model("gemini-2.5-flash")
    .instruct("Enrich the data.")
    .proceed_if(lambda s: s.get("valid") == "yes")
)

Tap (Observe Without Mutating)

tap(fn) creates a zero-cost observation step. It reads state but never writes back -- perfect for logging, metrics, and debugging:

from adk_fluent import tap

pipeline = (
    writer
    >> tap(lambda s: print("Draft:", s.get("draft", "")[:50]))
    >> reviewer
)

# Also available as a method
pipeline = writer.tap(lambda s: log_metrics(s)) >> reviewer

Expect (State Assertions)

expect(pred, msg) asserts a state contract at a pipeline step. Raises ValueError if the predicate fails:

from adk_fluent import expect

pipeline = (
    writer
    >> expect(lambda s: "draft" in s, "Writer must produce a draft")
    >> reviewer
)

Mock (Testing Without LLM)

.mock(responses) bypasses LLM calls with canned responses. Uses the same before_model_callback mechanism as ADK's ReplayPlugin, but scoped to a single agent:

# List of responses (cycles when exhausted)
agent = Agent("writer").model("gemini-2.5-flash").instruct("Write.").mock(["Draft 1", "Draft 2"])

# Callable for dynamic mocking
agent = Agent("echo").model("gemini-2.5-flash").mock(lambda req: "Mocked response")

Retry If

.retry_if(pred) retries agent execution while the predicate returns True. Thin wrapper over loop_until with inverted logic:

agent = (
    Agent("writer").model("gemini-2.5-flash")
    .instruct("Write a high-quality draft.").outputs("quality")
    .retry_if(lambda s: s.get("quality") != "good", max_retries=3)
)

Map Over

map_over(key, agent) iterates an agent over each item in a state list:

from adk_fluent import map_over

pipeline = (
    fetcher
    >> map_over("documents", summarizer, output_key="summaries")
    >> compiler
)

Timeout

.timeout(seconds) wraps an agent with a time limit. Raises asyncio.TimeoutError if exceeded:

agent = Agent("researcher").model("gemini-2.5-pro").instruct("Deep research.").timeout(60)

Gate (Human-in-the-Loop)

gate(pred, msg) pauses the pipeline for human approval when the condition is met. Uses ADK's escalate mechanism:

from adk_fluent import gate

pipeline = (
    analyzer
    >> gate(lambda s: s.get("risk") == "high", message="Approve high-risk action?")
    >> executor
)

Race (First-to-Finish)

race(a, b, ...) runs agents concurrently and keeps only the first to finish:

from adk_fluent import race

winner = race(
    Agent("fast").model("gemini-2.0-flash").instruct("Quick answer."),
    Agent("thorough").model("gemini-2.5-pro").instruct("Detailed answer."),
)

Full Composition

All operators compose into a single expression:

from pydantic import BaseModel
from adk_fluent import Agent, S, until

class Report(BaseModel):
    title: str
    body: str
    confidence: float

pipeline = (
    (   Agent("web").model("gemini-2.5-flash").instruct("Search web.")
      | Agent("scholar").model("gemini-2.5-flash").instruct("Search papers.")
    )
    >> S.merge("web", "scholar", into="research")
    >> Agent("writer").model("gemini-2.5-flash").instruct("Write.") @ Report
       // Agent("writer_b").model("gemini-2.5-pro").instruct("Write.") @ Report
    >> (
        Agent("critic").model("gemini-2.5-flash").instruct("Score.").outputs("confidence")
        >> Agent("reviser").model("gemini-2.5-flash").instruct("Improve.")
    ) * until(lambda s: s.get("confidence", 0) >= 0.85, max=4)
)

Fluent API Reference

Full API docs: API Reference · Agent · Workflow · Tool · Config

Agent Builder

The Agent builder wraps ADK's LlmAgent. Every method returns self for chaining.

Core Configuration

Prompt & Context Control

Template variables in string instructions are auto-resolved from session state:

# {topic} and {style} are replaced at runtime from session state
agent = Agent("writer").instruct("Write about {topic} in a {style} tone.")

This composes naturally with the expression algebra:

pipeline = (
    Agent("classifier").instruct("Classify.").outputs("topic")
    >> S.default(style="professional")
    >> Agent("writer").instruct("Write about {topic} in a {style} tone.")
)

Optional variables use ? suffix ({maybe_key?} returns empty string if missing). Namespaced keys: {app:setting}, {user:pref}, {temp:scratch}.

Prompt Builder

Deep dive: Prompt Composition guide

For multi-section prompts, the Prompt builder provides structured composition:

from adk_fluent import Prompt

prompt = (
    Prompt()
    .role("You are a senior code reviewer.")
    .context("The codebase uses Python 3.11 with type hints.")
    .task("Review the code for bugs and security issues.")
    .constraint("Be concise. Max 5 bullet points.")
    .constraint("No false positives.")
    .format("Return markdown with ## sections.")
    .example("Input: x=eval(input()) | Output: - **Critical**: eval() on user input")
)

agent = Agent("reviewer").model("gemini-2.5-flash").instruct(prompt).build()

Sections are emitted in a fixed order (role, context, task, constraints, format, examples) regardless of call order. Prompts are composable and reusable:

base_prompt = Prompt().role("You are a senior engineer.").constraint("Be precise.")

reviewer = Agent("reviewer").instruct(base_prompt + Prompt().task("Review code."))
writer   = Agent("writer").instruct(base_prompt + Prompt().task("Write documentation."))

Static Instructions & Context Caching

Split prompts into cacheable and dynamic parts:

agent = (
    Agent("analyst")
    .model("gemini-2.5-flash")
    .static("You are a financial analyst. Here is the 50-page annual report: ...")
    .instruct("Answer the user's question about the report.")
    .build()
)

When .static() is set, the static content goes as a system instruction (eligible for context caching), while .instruct() content goes as user content. This avoids re-processing large static contexts on every turn.

Dynamic Context Injection

Prepend runtime context to every LLM call:

agent = (
    Agent("support")
    .model("gemini-2.5-flash")
    .instruct("Help the customer.")
    .inject_context(lambda ctx: f"Customer: {ctx.state.get('customer_name', 'unknown')}")
    .inject_context(lambda ctx: f"Plan: {ctx.state.get('plan', 'free')}")
)

Each .inject_context() call accumulates. The function receives the callback context and returns a string that gets prepended as content before the LLM processes the request.

Callbacks

Deep dive: Callbacks guide · Module Lifecycle visual reference

All callback methods are additive -- multiple calls accumulate handlers, never replace:

Conditional variants append only when the condition is true:

agent = (
    Agent("service")
    .before_model_if(debug_mode, log_fn)
    .after_model_if(audit_enabled, audit_fn)
)

Control Flow

Delegation (LLM-Driven Routing)

Deep dive: Transfer Control guide · Delegation visual reference

# The coordinator's LLM decides when to delegate
coordinator = (
    Agent("coordinator")
    .model("gemini-2.5-flash")
    .instruct("Route tasks to the right specialist.")
    .delegate(Agent("math").model("gemini-2.5-flash").instruct("Solve math."))
    .delegate(Agent("code").model("gemini-2.5-flash").instruct("Write code."))
    .build()
)

.delegate(agent) wraps the sub-agent in an AgentTool so the coordinator's LLM can invoke it by name.

One-Shot Execution

Deep dive: Execution guide · Execution Modes visual reference

Cloning and Variants

base = Agent("base").model("gemini-2.5-flash").instruct("Be helpful.")

# Clone — independent deep copy with new name
math_agent = base.clone("math").instruct("Solve math.")

# with_() — immutable variant (original unchanged)
creative = base.with_(name="creative", model="gemini-2.5-pro")

Validation and Introspection

Dynamic Field Forwarding

Any ADK LlmAgent field can be set through __getattr__, even without an explicit method:

agent = Agent("x").generate_content_config(my_config)  # Works via forwarding

Misspelled names raise AttributeError with the closest match suggestion.

Workflow Builders

All workflow builders accept both built ADK agents and fluent builders as arguments. Builders are auto-built at .build() time, enabling safe sub-expression reuse.

Pipeline (Sequential)

from adk_fluent import Pipeline, Agent

# Builder style — full control over each step
pipeline = (
    Pipeline("data_processing")
    .step(Agent("extractor", "gemini-2.5-flash").instruct("Extract entities.").outputs("entities"))
    .step(Agent("enricher", "gemini-2.5-flash").instruct("Enrich {entities}.").tool(lookup_db))
    .step(Agent("formatter", "gemini-2.5-flash").instruct("Format output.").history("none"))
    .build()
)

# Operator style — same result
pipeline = (
    Agent("extractor", "gemini-2.5-flash").instruct("Extract entities.").outputs("entities")
    >> Agent("enricher", "gemini-2.5-flash").instruct("Enrich {entities}.").tool(lookup_db)
    >> Agent("formatter", "gemini-2.5-flash").instruct("Format output.").history("none")
).build()

FanOut (Parallel)

from adk_fluent import FanOut, Agent

# Builder style — named branches with different models
fanout = (
    FanOut("research")
    .branch(Agent("web", "gemini-2.5-flash").instruct("Search the web.").outputs("web_results"))
    .branch(Agent("papers", "gemini-2.5-pro").instruct("Search academic papers.").outputs("paper_results"))
    .branch(Agent("internal", "gemini-2.5-flash").instruct("Search internal docs.").outputs("internal_results"))
    .build()
)

# Operator style
fanout = (
    Agent("web", "gemini-2.5-flash").instruct("Search web.").outputs("web_results")
    | Agent("papers", "gemini-2.5-pro").instruct("Search papers.").outputs("paper_results")
    | Agent("internal", "gemini-2.5-flash").instruct("Search internal docs.").outputs("internal_results")
).build()

Loop

from adk_fluent import Loop, Agent, until

# Builder style — explicit loop configuration
loop = (
    Loop("quality_loop")
    .step(Agent("writer", "gemini-2.5-flash").instruct("Write draft.").outputs("quality"))
    .step(Agent("reviewer", "gemini-2.5-flash").instruct("Review and score."))
    .max_iterations(5)
    .until(lambda s: s.get("quality") == "good")
    .build()
)

# Operator style
loop = (
    Agent("writer", "gemini-2.5-flash").instruct("Write draft.").outputs("quality")
    >> Agent("reviewer", "gemini-2.5-flash").instruct("Review and score.")
) * until(lambda s: s.get("quality") == "good", max=5)

Combining Builder and Operator Styles

The styles mix freely. Use builders for complex individual steps and operators for composition:

from adk_fluent import Agent, Pipeline, FanOut, S, until, Prompt

# Define reusable agents with full builder configuration
researcher = (
    Agent("researcher", "gemini-2.5-flash")
    .instruct(Prompt().role("You are a research analyst.").task("Find relevant information."))
    .tool(search_tool)
    .before_model(log_fn)
    .outputs("findings")
)

writer = (
    Agent("writer", "gemini-2.5-pro")
    .instruct("Write a report about {findings}.")
    .static("Company style guide: use formal tone, cite sources...")
    .outputs("draft")
)

reviewer = (
    Agent("reviewer", "gemini-2.5-flash")
    .instruct("Score the draft 1-10 for quality.")
    .outputs("quality_score")
)

# Compose with operators — each sub-expression is reusable
research_phase = (
    FanOut("gather")
    .branch(researcher.clone("web").tool(web_search))
    .branch(researcher.clone("papers").tool(paper_search))
)

pipeline = (
    research_phase
    >> S.merge("web", "papers", into="findings")
    >> writer
    >> (reviewer >> writer) * until(lambda s: int(s.get("quality_score", 0)) >= 8, max=3)
)

Presets

Deep dive: Presets guide

Reusable configuration bundles:

from adk_fluent.presets import Preset

production = Preset(model="gemini-2.5-flash", before_model=log_fn, after_model=audit_fn)

agent = Agent("service").instruct("Handle requests.").use(production).build()

@agent Decorator

from adk_fluent.decorators import agent

@agent("weather_bot", model="gemini-2.5-flash")
def weather_bot():
    """You help with weather queries."""

@weather_bot.tool
def get_weather(city: str) -> str:
    return f"Sunny in {city}"

built = weather_bot.build()

Typed State Keys

from adk_fluent import StateKey

call_count = StateKey("call_count", scope="session", type=int, default=0)

# In callbacks/tools:
current = call_count.get(ctx)
call_count.increment(ctx)

When to Use adk-fluent

See also: Decision Guide · Framework Comparison · Best Practices

Use adk-fluent when you want to:

• Define agents in 1-3 lines instead of 22+
• Compose pipelines, fan-out, loops, and routing with operators (>>, |, *, //)
• Get IDE autocomplete and type checking during development
• Test agents deterministically with .mock() and .test() (no API calls)
• Iterate quickly with .ask() and .stream() (no Runner/Session boilerplate)

Use raw ADK directly when you need to:

• Subclass BaseAgent with custom _run_async_impl logic
• Access ADK internals not exposed through the builder API
• Build framework-level tooling that wraps ADK itself
• Manage Runner/Session lifecycle with fine-grained control beyond .session()

adk-fluent produces native ADK objects. You can mix fluent-built agents with hand-built agents in the same pipeline -- they're the same types.

Run with adk web

Environment Setup

Before running any example, copy the .env.example and fill in your credentials. Two auth paths are supported — pick one:

cd examples
cp .env.example .env

Option A: Gemini API Key (simplest — no GCP project needed):

# Get a free key at https://aistudio.google.com/app/apikey
GOOGLE_API_KEY=your-gemini-api-key-here

Option B: Vertex AI (full GCP — required for some advanced features):

GOOGLE_CLOUD_PROJECT=your-project-id
GOOGLE_CLOUD_LOCATION=us-central1
GOOGLE_GENAI_USE_VERTEXAI=TRUE

Every agent loads these variables automatically via load_dotenv().

Visual Cookbook Runner

A custom web frontend for interactively running and debugging all cookbook agents, with live A2UI surface rendering.

Quick Start (from scratch)

# 1. Clone and install the Python package
git clone https://github.com/vamsiramakrishnan/adk-fluent.git
cd adk-fluent
cd python && uv sync --all-extras && cd ..    # or: pip install -e "./python[a2a,yaml,rich]"

# 2. Configure credentials
cp python/visual/.env.example python/visual/.env
# Edit python/visual/.env — add your Gemini API key or Vertex AI credentials

# 3. Generate agent folders from cookbooks (one-time)
just agents                             # or: uv run --project python python -m shared.scripts.cookbook_to_agents --force

# 4. Launch the visual runner
just visual                             # or: cd python && uv run uvicorn visual.server:app --port 8099 --reload

Opens at http://localhost:8099 with:

• Left sidebar — all cookbooks, grouped by difficulty
• Center panel — interactive chat with any agent
• Right panel — live A2UI surface rendering + JSON inspector

A2UI Preview (no API key needed)

To browse A2UI component surfaces without any LLM calls:

just a2ui-preview

This exports surfaces from cookbooks 70-74 and opens a static gallery in your browser.

Visual Regression Tests

cd python
uv run pytest tests/visual/ -v                      # run tests (no API key needed)
uv run pytest tests/visual/ -v --update-golden       # update golden snapshots

See python/visual/README.md for full architecture details.

Performance

adk-fluent is a build-time layer. Calling .build() produces a native ADK object -- the same LlmAgent, SequentialAgent, or ParallelAgent you'd construct manually. After .build(), adk-fluent is not in the execution path. There is no runtime wrapper, proxy, or middleware layer injected by the builder itself.

Build overhead: Builder construction adds microseconds of Python dict manipulation per agent. For context, a single Gemini API call takes 500ms-30s.

Verify yourself:

uv run --project python python shared/scripts/benchmark.py

ADK Compatibility

Version Support Policy (N-5 Guarantee)

adk-fluent officially supports the current and previous 5 minor/patch releases of google-adk. Every CI run tests the generated fluent API against all 6 versions in the compatibility matrix.

How it works: The fluent API surface is generated from the latest ADK (via scanner.py), but the generated builders pass configuration through _safe_build(), which delegates to ADK's own Pydantic models at runtime. When you run against an older ADK:

• Builder methods for fields that exist in your ADK version work normally.
• Builder methods for fields added in a newer ADK will raise a clear BuilderError at .build() time, not silently fail.
• The pyproject.toml floor (google-adk>=1.20.0) is intentionally lower than the N-5 window to avoid hard-blocking users on older versions, but only versions within the N-5 window are actively tested.

Deprecation: When a new ADK version is released, the oldest version in the window drops out. We update the CI matrix, but do not add code to intentionally break older versions. Users on deprecated versions may continue to work but are not covered by CI.

A weekly sync workflow scans for new ADK releases every Monday, regenerates code, runs the full N-5 compatibility matrix, and opens a PR automatically. If you hit an incompatibility, open an issue.

How It Works

Deep dive: Architecture & Concepts · IR & Backends

adk-fluent is auto-generated from the installed ADK package. A single shared pipeline produces both the Python and TypeScript builders:

shared/scripts/scanner.py ─> shared/manifest.json
                                        │
                                        ▼
                             shared/scripts/seed_generator.py
                                        │
                                        ▼

                         │                             │
                         ▼                             ▼
               python/src/adk_fluent/         ts/src/builders/
                 (builders + .pyi stubs)        (TypeScript classes)

1. Scanner introspects all ADK modules and produces shared/manifest.json
2. Seed Generator classifies classes and produces shared/seeds/seed.toml (merged with manual extras)
3. Code Generator emits fluent builders for both Python (python/src/adk_fluent/) and TypeScript (ts/src/builders/)

This means adk-fluent automatically stays in sync with ADK updates:

pip install --upgrade google-adk
just all              # Regenerate Python (scan → seed → generate → docs)
just ts-generate      # Regenerate TypeScript from the same manifest
just test-all         # Verify both languages

Generated files (agent.py, config.py, .pyi stubs, ts/src/builders/*.ts) are owned by just generate / just ts-generate. Hand-written files are owned by developers. Formatters and pre-commit hooks only touch hand-written files — see .gitattributes for the full generated-file list.

First-time setup

just setup    # uv sync (python/) + npm install (ts/) + pre-commit hooks

Python workflow

# Full pipeline: scan -> seed -> generate -> docs (Python)
just all

# Run the Python test suite (780+ tests)
just test

# Type check hand-written Python code
just typecheck-core

# Local CI (preflight + check-gen + test)
just ci

All Python commands run against python/ under the hood — e.g. just test is equivalent to cd python && uv run pytest tests/.

TypeScript workflow

just ts-setup        # npm install inside ts/
just ts-generate     # Regenerate TS builders from shared/manifest.json
just ts-build        # tsc build
just ts-typecheck    # tsc --noEmit
just ts-lint         # eslint
just ts-test         # vitest run

Monorepo commands

just generate-all    # Regenerate Python AND TypeScript builders
just build-all       # Generate + build both packages
just test-all        # Run Python + TypeScript test suites

Releases

Only one file to edit: python/src/adk_fluent/_version.py. Everything else auto-syncs. (The TypeScript package versions independently via ts/package.json.)

just release patch   # or: minor, major
# → bumps _version.py, runs tests + typecheck, builds wheel
# → prints next steps: review, commit, tag, push

just release-tag     # creates and pushes the git tag
# → CI auto-publishes to PyPI + rebuilds versioned docs

The version in python/src/adk_fluent/_version.py is the single source of truth for the Python package — python/pyproject.toml, docs/conf.py, and the announcement banner all read from it automatically.
