About

I'm Sampath Kumar M, a Senior Developer Programs Engineer at Google Cloud. I work on AI agents — the Agent Development Kit (ADK) and the Agent-to-Agent (A2A) protocol — and write about Gemini, Google Cloud, and the craft of building with AI.

This site is my digital garden: cookbooks with runnable code, long-form writing on agent architectures and protocols, and a record of talks and events. It is written agents-first — structured so that AI agents can read, learn from, and act on the content — and useful to human readers too.

What you'll find here

• Cookbook — step-by-step, runnable tutorials (the Gemini + Google Cloud series).
• Writing — essays and guides on agents, protocols, and developer practice.
• Speaking — talks, workshops, and events.

For agents & LLMs
