A Python package from Google Cloud Platform that provides production-ready templates for building and deploying GenAI agents on Google Cloud, with built-in CI/CD, evaluation, and observability. It is now in maintenance mode, with active development moved to the successor project agents-cli.

Use cases

  • scaffold a production-ready AI agent on Google Cloud
  • deploy a RAG or ReAct agent to GCP with CI/CD
  • set up Vertex AI evaluation for my LLM agent
  • add observability and monitoring to a GenAI agent
  • bootstrap a multi-agent application with Terraform and deployment pipelines
  • ship a Gemini-powered chatbot to production quickly

When to choose

  • you are maintaining an existing project already built with Agent Starter Pack
  • you need critical fixes only and want the stable, documented GCP agent templates
  • you want a battle-tested scaffold with Terraform, CI/CD, and Vertex AI evaluation out of the box

When to avoid

  • you are starting a new project - use the successor agents-cli instead
  • you need new templates, features, or deployment targets, since none will be added
  • you deploy outside Google Cloud, as the templates are GCP-centric
