# === Quick Use ===
# pip install google-adk
# Then create your first agent:

from google.adk.agents import Agent
from google.adk.tools import google_search

# Define a research agent
research_agent = Agent(
    name="researcher",
    model="gemini-2.0-flash",
    description="Research assistant that finds and summarizes information",
    instruction="""You are a helpful research assistant.
    Use Google Search to find accurate, up-to-date information.

from google.adk.agents import Agent, SequentialAgent

writer = Agent(
    name="writer",
    model="gemini-2.0-flash",
    instruction="Write clear, concise content based on research findings.",
)

# Chain agents: researcher -> writer
pipeline = SequentialAgent(
    name="research_pipeline",
    sub_agents=[research_agent, writer],
)

# === Evaluation ===
# ADK includes built-in evaluation tools:
# adk eval my_agent --test-file tests.json
