Claude Code CLI	Only for the Claude Code demo

Installation

1. Clone the repository

   git clone https://github.com/nneira/agent-skills-a2a-adk-claude.git
   cd agent-skills-a2a-adk-claude

2. Create the virtual environment and install dependencies

   python -m venv .venv && source .venv/bin/activate
   pip install -r requirements.txt

3. Configure environment variables

   cp .env.example .env

   Open .env and fill in:

   # Required for all demos
   GEMINI_API_KEY=your-gemini-api-key
   
   # Required for DNS demos (Python, ADK, A2A)
   CLOUDFLARE_API_TOKEN=your-cloudflare-api-token
   CLOUDFLARE_ZONE_ID=your-zone-id
   CLOUDFLARE_DOMAIN=yourdomain.com

   Tip

   The Monitoring Agent doesn’t need API keys — it works with public HTTP, SSL and WHOIS.

Verify everything works

python -c "import google.genai, google.adk; print('OK')"

If you see OK, you’re ready. Now you can go to the Demo and run the scenarios.
