ADK - Agent Development Kit¶
Production-Ready Framework
The ADK (Agent Development Kit) represents JAF's production-ready layer, providing enterprise-grade security, immutable data structures, and robust infrastructure for building AI agent systems.
What is the ADK?¶
The Agent Development Kit (ADK) is JAF's production framework that transforms the core functional agent system into an enterprise-ready platform. It provides:
- ** Security-First Design**: Multi-level input sanitization and safe code execution
- ** Functional Programming**: Immutable data structures and pure functions
- ** Production Infrastructure**: Real database providers and LLM integrations
- ** Error Recovery**: Circuit breakers, retries, and comprehensive error handling
🔄 The Production Transformation¶
The ADK represents a complete transformation from prototype to production:
Before: Sophisticated Mock-up¶
# Old approach - security vulnerabilities
result = eval(user_input) # Dangerous!
# Old approach - mutable state
session.messages.append(message) # Not thread-safe
After: Production-Ready ADK¶
# New approach - secure evaluation
from adk.utils.safe_evaluator import safe_calculate
result = safe_calculate(user_input) # AST-based, secure
# New approach - immutable operations
from adk.types import create_immutable_session
new_session = session.with_message(message) # Thread-safe
# Modern tool creation with @function_tool
from jaf import function_tool
@function_tool
async def secure_calculator(expression: str, context=None) -> str:
"""Secure calculator using ADK safe evaluation.
Args:
expression: Mathematical expression to evaluate safely
"""
result = safe_calculate(expression)
if result['success']:
return f"Result: {expression} = {result['result']}"
else:
return f"Error: {result['error']}"
Core ADK Components¶
1. Security Framework¶
Input Sanitization
from adk.security import AdkInputSanitizer, SanitizationLevel
sanitizer = AdkInputSanitizer(SanitizationLevel.STRICT)
result = sanitizer.sanitize(user_input)
if result.is_safe:
# Process sanitized input
process_input(result.sanitized_input)
else:
# Handle security issues
log_security_violation(result.detected_issues)
Safe Math Evaluation with Function Tools
from adk.utils.safe_evaluator import safe_calculate
from jaf import function_tool
@function_tool
async def advanced_calculator(
expression: str,
precision: int = 2,
context=None
) -> str:
"""Advanced calculator with configurable precision.
Args:
expression: Mathematical expression to evaluate safely
precision: Number of decimal places for results (0-10)
"""
# Validate precision
if not (0 <= precision <= 10):
return "Error: Precision must be between 0 and 10"
# Use ADK safe evaluation
result = safe_calculate(expression)
if result['success']:
value = result['result']
if isinstance(value, float):
value = round(value, precision)
return f"Result: {expression} = {value}"
else:
return f"Error: {result['error']}"
# Usage example
# result = await advanced_calculator("2 + 3 * 4", 2) # Returns "Result: 2 + 3 * 4 = 14"
2. Immutable Session Management¶
Creating Immutable Sessions
from adk.types import create_immutable_session, create_user_message
# Create immutable session
session = create_immutable_session(
session_id="user-123-session",
user_id="user-123",
app_name="my-agent-app"
)
# Add messages functionally (creates new session)
user_msg = create_user_message("Hello, how are you?")
session_with_message = session.with_message(user_msg)
# Original session remains unchanged
assert len(session.messages) == 0
assert len(session_with_message.messages) == 1
Pure Function Operations with Tools
from adk.types import add_message_to_session, get_recent_messages, create_assistant_message
from jaf import function_tool
@function_tool
async def session_analytics(
operation: str,
count: int = 5,
context=None
) -> str:
"""Analyze session data using immutable operations.
Args:
operation: Type of analysis ('recent', 'summary', 'stats')
count: Number of recent messages to analyze
"""
# Access session from context (ADK pattern)
session = getattr(context, 'session', None)
if not session:
return "Error: No session data available"
if operation == "recent":
# Pure function - no side effects
recent = get_recent_messages(session, count=count)
return f"Recent {count} messages: {len(recent)} found"
elif operation == "summary":
messages = session.messages
user_msgs = [m for m in messages if m.role == 'user']
assistant_msgs = [m for m in messages if m.role == 'assistant']
return f"Session summary: {len(user_msgs)} user, {len(assistant_msgs)} assistant messages"
elif operation == "stats":
total_length = sum(len(m.content) for m in session.messages)
avg_length = total_length / len(session.messages) if session.messages else 0
return f"Stats: {len(session.messages)} total messages, avg length: {avg_length:.1f} chars"
else:
return f"Error: Unknown operation '{operation}'. Use: recent, summary, stats"
# Thread-safe by design - immutable data structures
3. Production Infrastructure¶
Database Session Providers
from adk.sessions import create_redis_session_provider, create_postgres_session_provider
# Redis provider for fast session storage
redis_provider = create_redis_session_provider({

"""
# Auto-detect complexity if not specified
if complexity == "auto":
