In this course, you'll learn to build and run enterprise agents on the Managed Agents API, the managed agent runtime on Gemini platform. Three conceptual lessons give you the mental model. You'll learn why a real business task needs an agent rather than a chat model. You'll examine how the platform splits into a control plane that defines agents and a data plane that runs them. You'll learn how to assemble an agent from a definition, a sandboxed environment, mounted data, tools, and skills. Furthermore, you'll learn how to run it with background interactions, a streamed reason-act loop, resilient typed results, and state that persists across turns. You then put that model to work in a hands-on lab, where you build, run, and harden a retail merchandising agent for Cymbal Retail from an empty project to a production-shaped deployment. By the end, you'll be able to design, build, and operate a managed agent of your own.
