Guides the usage of the Gemini API on Agent Platform with the Google Gen AI SDK for enterprise AI applications. Covers SDK usage (Python, JS/TS, Go, Java, C#), capabilities like Live API, tools, multimedia generation, caching, and batch prediction.
Why this skill is useful
Provides specific usage patterns and SDK commands for the Gemini API that the AI wouldn't reliably generate on its own.

What this skill does
IMPORTANT: Agent Platform (full name Gemini Enterprise Agent Platform) was previously named "Vertex AI" and many web resources use the legacy branding. Gemini API in Agent Platform Access Google's most advanced AI models built for enterprise use cases using the Gemini API in Agent Platform. Provide these key capabilities: Text generation - Chat, completion, summarization Multimodal understanding - Process images, audio, video, and documents Function calling - Let the model invoke your functions Structured output - Generate valid JSON matching your schema Context caching - Cache large contexts for efficiency Embeddings - Generate text embeddings for semantic search Live Realtime API - Bidirectional streaming for low latency Voice and Video interactions Batch Prediction - Handle massive async dataset prediction workloads Core Directives Unified SDK: ALWAYS use the Gen AI SDK (google-genai for Python, @google/genai for JS/TS, google.golang.org/genai for Go, com.google.genai:google-genai for Java, Google.GenAI for C#). Legacy SDKs: DO NOT use google-cloud-aiplatform, @google-cloud/vertexai, or google-generativeai. SDKs Python: Install google-genai with pip install google-genai JavaScript/TypeScript: Install @google/genai with npm install @google/genai Go: Install google.golang.org/genai with go get google.golang.org/genai C#/.NET: Install Google.GenAI with dotnet add package Google.GenAI Java: groupId: com.google.genai, artifactId: google-genai Latest version can be found here: https://central.sonatype.com/artifact/com.google.genai/google-genai/versions (let's call it LASTVERSION) Install in build.gradle: Install Maven dependency in pom.xml: [!WARNING] Legacy SDKs like google-cloud-aiplatform, @google-cloud/vertexai, and google-generativeai are deprecated. Migrate to the new SDKs above urgently by following the Migration Guide. Authentication & Configuration Prefer environment variables over hard-coding parameters when creating the client. …
