| description | MUST READ before writing or modifying any ADK agent code. ADK API quick reference for Python. Covers agent types, tool definitions, orchestration patterns, callbacks, state management, and common pitfalls.

Troubleshooting
Error: ImportError: cannot import name 'load_web_page' from 'google.adk.tools'
Cause: Importing the module instead of the tool instance
Solution: Use from google.adk.tools.load_web_page import load_web_page (not from google.adk.tools import load_web_page)
Error: output_schema disables all tools
Cause: Setting output_schema on an agent prevents it from calling any tools
Solution: Remove output_schema if the agent needs to call tools, or use a two-agent pattern where one calls tools and another formats output
Error: Sub-agent not executing
Cause: Passing a function reference instead of an agent instance to sub_agents
Solution: Pass agent instances: sub_agents=[my_agent] not sub_agents=[create_agent]
