google/adk-samples
Google collects ready-to-run agent examples built with its ADK toolkit in one repo
google/adk-samples gathers small, runnable AI agent examples, called recipes, built with the Agent Development Kit (ADK). The core folder holds curated recipes that each teach one pattern such as OAuth login flows, session memory, guardrails, or RAG search, while contrib holds broader community-submitted examples for specific industries or workflows. Every recipe ships its own setup and run instructions, so you can fork one directly as a starting point.

What it does
- Provides runnable small agent examples built with ADK, split into a core folder and a contrib folder
- core contains curated recipes, each focused on teaching one pattern: OAuth flows, session memory, guardrails, RAG patterns
- contrib contains community-contributed recipes covering broader, industry-specific use cases
- Internal AI coding-assistant helpers used to build the repo live separately in .agents/skills, distinct from user-facing recipes under skills/vertical/solution
- Released under Apache 2.0; explicitly not an officially supported Google product and meant for demonstration and starting points, not production use
Why it matters
Developers starting an AI agent project get working code for common needs like authentication, memory, and retrieval instead of starting from a blank page. With over 10,000 stars, it has become a widely referenced example collection within Google's agent development ecosystem.
Terms in this repo
