Google has released version 1.0.0 of the Agent Development Kit (ADK) for Java, introducing powerful new features like Google Maps grounding, built-in URL fetching, and a standardized Agent2Agent protocol for cross-framework collaboration. The update enhances agent control through a new “App” and “Plugin” architecture, which allows for global logging, automated context window management via event compaction, and “Human-in-the-Loop” workflows for action confirmations. Additionally, the release provides robust session and memory services using Google Cloud integrations like Firestore and Vertex AI to manage long-term state and large data artifacts.
