Adk

The Agent Development Kit (ADK) simplifies authentication for agents and tools, but is more challenging with the LiteLLM connector when accessing models hosted on Cloud Run. This guide explores how to acquire Google-signed OpenID (ID) tokens and inject them into the LiteLLM communication channel using ADK.

Google Cloud Run provides a robust, built-in access control mechanism based on enforced authentication and IAM policies. When it is enabled, only calls that are made by authenticated accounts which have the specific Cloud Run Invoker role, are accepted, protecting your service from unauthorized invocations.

Have you ever found yourself grappling with observability instrumentation, even with tools like OpenTelemetry? This challenge becomes even more pronounced when developing Agentic applications, where understanding internal workflows is paramount. There are many frameworks that help developers to create an Agentic application. I’d like to review what observability data is generated when developers use the Agent Development Kit (ADK) from Google. ADK framework comes with logging and tracing instrumentation out-of-the-box.
