Google's Agent Development Kit now ships six agent skills in its docs repo, loadable into any coding agent via npx skills. The skills cover development lifecycle, evaluation, deployment, observability, and project scaffolding — structured ADK expertise for your coding agent.
adk-dev-guide (development lifecycle, code preservation, model selection), adk-cheatsheet (Python API reference for agents, tools, orchestration), adk-eval-guide (evaluation methodology — evalsets, LLM-as-judge, trajectory scoring), adk-deploy-guide (deployment via Agent Engine and Cloud Run), adk-observability-guide (Cloud Trace, Cloud Logging, third-party integrations), and adk-scaffold (project scaffolding via Agent Starter Pack CLI).The skills ship as npx skills-compatible packages using the Vercel Labs skills standard, so any coding agent that supports the format can load them directly. Instead of searching ADK docs manually, a coding agent gets structured guidance for each phase — from scaffolding through production observability.
Point your coding agent at ADK development tasks — evaluation setup, deployment configuration, or observability wiring — after loading the skills via npx skills.
Hey, look at that. The popular Agent Development Kit just snuck some agent skills into their docs repo. These skills will help you create, evaluate, deploy, and observe ADK agents better. https://t.co/SblQXNAfAP https://t.co/huKLfdim8b
