Simplistic Live (Bidi-Streaming) Agent

This project provides a basic example of a live, bidirectional streaming agent designed for testing and experimentation.

Getting Started

Follow these steps to get the agent up and running:

1. Start the ADK Web Server Open your terminal, navigate to the root directory that contains the live_bidi_streaming_single_agent folder, and execute the following command:

   adk web
   

2. Access the ADK Web UI Once the server is running, open your web browser and navigate to the URL provided in the terminal (it will typically be http://localhost:8000).

3. Select the Agent In the top-left corner of the ADK Web UI, use the dropdown menu to select this agent.

4. Start Streaming Click on either the Audio or Video icon located near the chat input box to begin the streaming session.

5. Interact with the Agent You can now begin talking to the agent, and it will respond in real-time.

Usage Notes

• You only need to click the Audio or Video button once to initiate the stream. The current version does not support stopping and restarting the stream by clicking the button again during a session.
