# Build Your Google ADK Skill

Before learning Google's Agent Development Kit, you'll **own** a Google ADK skill.

---

## Step 1: Get the Skills Lab

1. Go to [github.com/panaversity/claude-code-skills-lab](https://github.com/panaversity/claude-code-skills-lab)
2. Click the green **Code** button
3. Select **Download ZIP**
4. Extract the ZIP file
5. Open the extracted folder in your terminal

```bash
cd claude-code-skills-lab
claude
```

---

## Step 2: Create Your Skill

Copy and paste this prompt:

```
Using your skill creator skill create a new skill for Google ADK (Agent
Development Kit). I will use it to build reliable AI agents with Gemini
from hello world to professional production systems. Use context7 skill
to study official documentation and then build it so no self assumed knowledge.
```

Claude will:
1. Fetch official Google ADK documentation via Context7
2. Ask you clarifying questions (workflow types, tool patterns, evaluation needs)
3. Create the complete skill with references and templates

Your skill appears at `.claude/skills/google-adk/`.

---

## Done

You now own a Google ADK skill built from official documentation. The rest of this chapter teaches you what it knows—and how to make it better.
