adk-recipes is Google's public collection of small, runnable example agents that demonstrate how to solve concrete problems with the Agent Development Kit (ADK), Google's framework for building AI agents. The repository is organized into two directories: core/, maintained by the agents-cli team, containing canonical, focused recipes that each teach one pattern well, such as OAuth authentication flows, session memory, guardrails, and retrieval-augmented generation (RAG), and contrib/, a broader set of community-contributed recipes covering specific use cases and industry workflows, from customer-service bots to research agents. Every recipe ships with its own README containing setup and run instructions, so a developer can clone a single example and use it as a working starting point instead of building an agent from a blank page. ADK itself has SDKs in Python, TypeScript, Go, Java, and Kotlin, and the recipes target these specific SDKs. The repository also documents its own contribution process: a one-page Recipe Checklist for authors who want to submit a new recipe quickly, and a longer Recipe Handbook covering deeper tooling and conventions. Recipes are explicitly framed as demonstrations and starting points rather than production-ready code, and the project carries a disclaimer that it is not an officially supported Google product and is not eligible for Google's Open Source Vulnerability Rewards Program. With around 10,000 GitHub stars, adk-recipes serves developers who are already using or evaluating ADK and want concrete, runnable reference implementations of common agent-building patterns rather than reading framework documentation alone.
