Diagnoses misbehaving ADK agents by inspecting sessions, events, tool calls, and the exact request that reached the model. Covers the `adk run` CLI and the `adk web` dev server with its session, trace, and debug HTTP endpoints. Use when an agent returns the wrong answer, ignores a tool or swallows a tool error, hangs, loops, emits raw JSON instead of calling tools, is not discovered by `adk web`, when a sub-agent cannot see the parent conversation, or when you need the LLM request/response, tok…

Works with any agent that supports SKILL.md skills.

What this skill can do

Install

Paste this into your terminal. It downloads exactly the version we scanned, not whatever is newest.

if [ -e ~/.agents/skills/'adk-debug' ] || [ -L ~/.agents/skills/'adk-debug' ]; then echo 'A skill folder named adk-debug already exists — not replacing it' >&2; false; else d=$(mktemp -d) && git clone --quiet --filter=blob:none --no-checkout 'https://github.com/google/adk-python' "$d" && git -C "$d" checkout --quiet 'df9f9d0452c02e2d461899f34acfb756e9612746' -- '.agents/skills/adk-debug' && mkdir -p ~/.agents/skills && cp -R "$d"/'.agents/skills/adk-debug' ~/.agents/skills/'adk-debug' && rm -rf "$d"; fi

Codex reads ~/.agents/skills directly. For Claude Code, Cursor, Copilot, Gemini CLI, Antigravity or OpenCode, also link it. For Claude Code: ln -s ~/.agents/skills/'adk-debug' ~/.claude/skills/'adk-debug' (other agents: ~/.cursor/skills, ~/.copilot/skills, ~/.gemini/skills, ~/.gemini/config/skills, ~/.config/opencode/skills). Or install through the finder skill, which does both.
