The system functions as an automated Hollywood Production Team designed to streamline creative brainstorming. The user submits a simple movie prompt (e.g., "A movie about a time-traveling chef"), and the specialized agents work sequentially to refine the idea into a viable film concept.</p> <h2> 🧠 My Agent Architecture </h2> <p>My multi-agent team uses a sequential workflow tracking architecture consisting of two specialized agents running on <code>gemini-2.5-flash</code>:</p> <ol> <li> <strong>movie_writer</strong>: Takes the raw user input concept and expands it into a high-stakes, descriptive three-sentence movie plot.</li> <li> <strong>movie_critic</strong>: Automatically intercepts the writer's completed story context to deliver constructive structural improvements.</li> </ol> <p>These agents are orchestrated via a <code>SequentialAgent</code> pipeline configuration that manages data handoffs automatically.</p> <h2> 🛠️ Key Learnings &amp; Challenges </h2> <ul> <li> <strong>Framework Evolution:</strong> I learned how to structure project modules using ADK 2.0's directory scanning conventions (<code>__init__.py</code> mapping definitions).</li> <li> <strong>Overcoming Roadblocks:</strong> I originally ran into layout separation issues on Windows where the backend command runner could not discover the python modules. Resolving this taught me how the <code>google.adk.cli</code> maps working directory environments (<code>./app</code>).</li> <li> <strong>Handling API Constraints:</strong> Dealing with transient API capacity limits (like standard 503 backend service spikes) taught me how crucial error handling and session resets are when building live AI tools.</li> </ul> agents ai google showdev
