This part introduces the fundamental concept of tools in ADK—what they are, why they matter, and how agents use them to extend their capabilities beyond pure language understanding. You'll learn the core architecture and build your first tool-enabled agent.
• Built-in tools
This part introduces ADK’s built-in tools—production-ready capabilities provided by the framework for common tasks. You'll learn to use Google Search and code execution tools without writing complex integration code.
• MCP tools
Understand what MCP is and how it extends agent capabilities through external servers.
• Custom function tools
This part teaches you to create custom function tools tailored to your specific business logic and requirements. You'll learn to write effective tool functions with proper signatures, docstrings, and return values that the LLM can understand and use effectively.
• Combining tools effectively
This part teaches you to design strategic instructions that guide agents to use multiple tools effectively. You'll learn instruction patterns, error handling strategies, and when to use specialized agents as tools.
