What is Agent Development Kit (ADK)?
An Agent Development Kit (ADK) is a framework that provides primitives for declaring agents, their tools, their workflows, and their guardrails. LeafMesh ADK is YAML-first — agents are defined in declarative YAML rather than imperative code — making it accessible to non-developers, easy to audit, and friendly to version control.
