# Google ADK A2A Server

> Expose a Google ADK search agent over A2A for A2AClient tests.

This server uses Google's Agent Development Kit (ADK) to create an A2A-compatible agent that can be tested with Agno's A2AClient.

````python google_adk_server.py theme={null}
"""Google ADK A2A Server for testing A2AClient.

This server uses Google's Agent Development Kit (ADK) to create an A2A-compatible
agent that can be tested with Agno's A2AClient.

Note: To enable streaming, you need to set the `streaming` capability to `true` in the agent card. This means creating a custom agent card and providing it to the `to_a2a` function.

For example:
```python
agent_card = AgentCard(
    name="facts_agent",
    description="Agent that provides interesting facts.",
    url="http://localhost:8001",
    version="1.0.0",
    capabilities=AgentCapabilities(streaming=True, push_notifications=False, state_transition_history=False),
    skills=[],
    default_input_modes=["text/plain"],
    default_output_modes=["text/plain"],
)
```

Prerequisites:
    uv pip install google-adk a2a-sdk uvicorn
    export GOOGLE_API_KEY=your_key

Usage:
    python cookbook/05_agent_os/client_a2a/servers/google_adk_server.py

The server will start at http://localhost:8001
