# 🚀 Agent Starter Pack

![Version](https://img.shields.io/pypi/v/agent-starter-pack?color=blue) [![1-Minute Video Overview](https://img.shields.io/badge/1--Minute%20Overview-gray)](https://youtu.be/jHt-ZVD660g) [![Docs](https://img.shields.io/badge/Documentation-gray)](./docs/README.md)


The `agent-starter-pack` is a collection of production-ready Generative AI Agent templates built for Google Cloud. <br>
It accelerates development by providing a holistic, production-ready solution, addressing common challenges (Deployment & Operations, Evaluation, Customization, Observability) in building and deploying GenAI agents.

| ⚡️ Launch | 🧪 Experiment  | ✅ Deploy | 🛠️ Customize |
|---|---|---|---|
| [Pre-built agent templates](./agents/) (ReAct, RAG, multi-agent, Live Multimodal API). | [Vertex AI evaluation](https://cloud.google.com/vertex-ai/generative-ai/docs/models/evaluation-overview) and an interactive playground. | Production-ready infra with [monitoring](./docs/monitoring.md), [observability](./docs/observability.md), and [CI/CD](./docs/deployment.md) on [Cloud Run](https://cloud.google.com/run) or [Agent Engine](https://cloud.google.com/vertex-ai/generative-ai/docs/agent-engine/overview). | Extend and customize templates according to your needs. |

## ⚡ Get Started in 1 Minute

Ready to build your AI agent? Simply run this command:

```bash
# Create and activate a Python virtual environment
python -m venv venv && source venv/bin/activate

# Install the agent starter pack
pip install agent-starter-pack

# Create a new agent project
agent-starter-pack create my-awesome-agent
```

**That's it!** You now have a fully functional agent project—complete with backend, frontend, and deployment infrastructure—ready for you to explore and customize.
For more installation options, see the [Installation Guide](docs/installation.md).

---

 🆕 The starter pack offers full support for Agent Engine, a new fully managed solution to deploy agents. Simply run this command to get started:

```bash
agent-starter-pack create my-agent -d agent_engine -a langgraph_base_react
```


*See the [full list of options](docs/cli/create.md) for details.*

## 🤖 Agents

| Agent Name                  | Description                                                                                                                       |
|-----------------------------|-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|
| `langgraph_base_react`      | A agent implementing a base ReAct agent using LangGraph |
| `agentic_rag_vertexai_search` | A RAG agent using Vertex AI Search and LangGraph for document retrieval and Q&A       |
| `crewai_coding_crew`       | A multi-agent system implemented with CrewAI created to support coding activities       |
| `multimodal_live_api`       | A real-time multimodal RAG agent powered by Gemini, supporting audio/video/text chat with vector DB-backed responses                       |

**More agents are on the way!** We are continuously expanding our [agent library](./agents/).  Have a specific agent type in mind?  [Contribute!](#contributing)


#### Extra Features

The `agent-starter-pack` offers two key features to accelerate and simplify the development of your agent:

- **🔄 [CI/CD Automation (Experimental)](docs/cli/setup_cicd.md)** - One command to set up a complete GitHub + Cloud Build pipeline for all environments
- **📥 [Data Pipeline for RAG with Vertex AI Search and Terraform/CI-CD](docs/data-ingestion.md)** - Seamlessly integrate a data pipeline to process embeddings for RAG into your agent system.


## High-Level Architecture

This starter pack covers all aspects of Agent development, from prototyping and evaluation to deployment and monitoring.

#### From `e2e-gen-ai-app-starter-pack` to `agent-starter-pack`

This project represents the next evolution of the [e2e-gen-ai-app-starter-pack](goo.gle/e2e-gen-ai-app-starter-pack).  Building on the foundation of the original, we've made significant improvements:

*   **Streamlined CLI:**  A new command-line interface (`agent-starter-pack`) simplifies project creation, template selection, and deployment.
*   **Expanded Agent Options:**  Support for a wider variety of agent frameworks (LangGraph, CrewAI, and the Google Agent Framework SDK) and deployment targets (including Vertex AI Agent Engine).
*   **Simplified setup**: Integrated gcloud authentication and projects and region configurations
