Vertex AI Agent Builder

Build and deploy production-ready agents on Vertex AI with Gemini models, retrieval (RAG), function calling, and operational guardrails (validation, monitoring, cost controls).

Overview

• Produces an agent scaffold aligned with Vertex AI Agent Engine deployment patterns.
• Helps choose models/regions, design tool/function interfaces, and wire up retrieval.
• Includes an evaluation + smoke-test checklist so deployments don’t regress.

Prerequisites

• Google Cloud project with Vertex AI API enabled
• Permissions to deploy/operate Agent Engine runtimes (or a local-only build target)
• If using RAG: a document source (GCS/BigQuery/Firestore/etc) and an embeddings/index strategy
• Secrets handled via env vars or Secret Manager (never committed)
