name: adk-tool-scaffold description: Scaffolds a new custom Tool class for the Agent Development Kit (ADK).

ADK Tool Scaffold Skill

This skill automates the creation of standard BaseTool implementations for the Agent Development Kit.

Instructions

1. Identify the Tool Name: Extract the name of the tool the user wants to build (e.g., "StockPrice", "EmailSender").

2. Review the Example: Check examples/WeatherTool.py to understand the expected structure of an ADK tool (imports, inheritance, schema).

3. Run the Scaffolder: Execute the python script to generate the initial file.

   Copypython scripts/scaffold_tool.py <ToolName>
   

4. Refine: After generation, you must edit the file to:

   • Update the execute method with real logic.
   • Define the JSON schema in get_schema.

Example Usage

User: "Create a tool to search Wikipedia." Agent:

1. Runs python scripts/scaffold_tool.py WikipediaSearch
2. Editing WikipediaSearchTool.py to add the requests logic and query argument schema.
