ADK sample

This directory contains a Google Cloud Vertex AI Agent Development Kit sample agent that uses the MCP genmedia tools.

Prerequisites

Install the MCP Servers for Genmedia tools. This example uses the Go versions and assumes you’ve installed them locally.

Setup

Add an .env file to the genmedia_agent agent directory:

GOOGLE_CLOUD_PROJECT="your-project-id"
GOOGLE_CLOUD_LOCATION="your-location" #e.g. us-central1
GOOGLE_GENAI_USE_VERTEXAI="True"

Start the Imagen MCP Server

The agent example contains two MCP servers using STDIO (Veo, Chirp 3) and one using the SSE protocol (Imagen).

Start the Imagen MCP Server in a separate terminal:

export PROJECT_ID=$(gcloud config get project)
mcp-imagen-go --transport sse

Run the ADK Developer UI

In this dir, start the adk web debug UX:

uv sync
source .venv/bin/activate
