Comment thread adk/quickstart.mdx
jacksonyzj added a commit that referenced this pull request Apr 23, 2026
Incorporates PR #461 (adrian-kahali):
- Get Started restructure: welcome -> introduction, new top-level
  quickstart, updated docs.json sidebar
- Configuration page: <Tip> blocks linking to related guides,
  expandable config snippet, cleaner prose
- Environment setup: consolidated secrets + config explanations,
  better wording
- Integrations: clearer intro, CLI section labelled
- Conversations: <CodeGroup> for channel matching, <Tip> blocks
  for cross-references
- AI execution: <Note> for LLMz reference, tighter phrasing
- Tools: highlight annotations on code blocks

Conflicts resolved in favor of keeping the audit fixes from this
branch (correct default model order, ms units for idleTimeout,
evals/ path, agent-steps screenshot, no trailing Cards, no
standalone Dev console sections, "Botpress Cloud" wording, real
CLI reference secrets table instead of placeholder link) while
taking Adrian's <Tip>/<Note> block styling and structural
improvements.

@adkah adkah requested a review from jacksonyzj April 24, 2026 18:09
@adkah adkah self-assigned this Apr 24, 2026

@adkah adkah removed their assignment Apr 24, 2026
- configuration: move evals/ out of src/ in the project tree (evals
  live at the agent root, not under src/)
- environment: remove duplicate standalone Dev console subsection
  under Configuration (image is already inlined above)
- tools: drop src/tools/ from the lead-in since tools can live
  anywhere under src/
- tables: fix "Must with a letter" typo -> "Must start with a letter"
- evals: Eval import back to @botpress/runtime (it's exported from
  runtime/library.ts, not @botpress/adk; matches packages/lack/evals/*)
- workflows: rename hyphenated workflow names to camelCase across
  create/steps/request-notify/evals/actions/knowledge/extract examples
  (generator emits unquoted keys in .adk/workflow-types.d.ts, so
  hyphenated names produce invalid TypeScript)
- tables: drop `createdAt` from the OrderTable example (it's a
  reserved column per runtime/primitives/table.ts:320)
- integrations: reconcile the Enable/Disable section so it no longer
  contradicts the CLI section about newly-added integrations being
  disabled by default

* docs(adk-v2): scaffold get-started section with install page

Add the Install page covering CLI prerequisites, install scripts for
macOS/Linux/Windows, version pinning, custom install directory,
self-upgrade, and the npm alternative. Empty placeholders for
quickstart, welcome, and quickstart-with-coding-assistant land
alongside to establish the v2 get-started structure.

* docs(adk-v2): add quickstart page

* docs(adk): replace intro/quickstart/project-structure with new Get started section

Consolidates the ADK v2 install and quickstart drafts into a new Get started folder
inside the existing ADK docs, and removes the standalone introduction, quickstart,
and project-structure pages whose content is folded into the new pages (or covered
by upcoming v2 concept pages). Drops the separate ADK v2 sidebar group.

Updates docs.json, the ADK card on the home page, and the Zai overview link to
point at the new paths so the broken-links check stays green.

* docs(adk): restructure sidebar and rewrite Get Started section

Reorganize the ADK docs from a flat "Concepts" list into 11 topic-based
groups matching the new documentation plan. Rewrite Welcome and Quickstart
pages with verified, accurate content. Remove standalone Install page
(folded into Quickstart) and Quickstart with coding assistant page.

Add stub files for all new sections (setup, conversations, workflows,
external, data, testing, zai utilities, ai-native, advanced).

* docs(adk): write Setting up your agent section

Add content for Agent Configuration (project structure, defineConfig
walkthrough), Environment Setup (secrets, configuration values, dev/prod,
preflight checks), and Integrations (dev console hub as primary,
CLI as secondary, config stored on Botpress Cloud per bot).

* docs(adk): write Handling conversations section

Seven pages covering the full conversation lifecycle:
- Set up conversations: channels, handler types, events, state

* docs(adk): write Handling longform logic section

Three pages covering workflows:
- Create workflows: definition, starting (programmatic, scheduled, as tool),
  deduplication, instance methods, timeout, handler params
- Use workflow steps: persistence, retries, sleep, listen, fail/abort,
  child workflows, parallel processing (map, forEach, batch)
- Request and notify: step.request/provide, step.notify, workflow callbacks,
  summary table of mechanisms

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>

* docs(adk): write Actions and triggers section

Rename section from "Allowing interaction from outside" to "Actions and
triggers". Rename "Build Actions" to "Create actions" for consistency.

- Create actions: definition, calling from all primitives, .asTool(),
  integration actions, external API access via Runtime API
- Set up triggers: event subscriptions, custom events, multiple events,
  calling actions from triggers

Remove standalone scheduling page (already covered in Create workflows).

* docs(adk): write AI Native Development section

Skills page covering all 6 ADK skills, slash commands, installation

* remove default expand

* align get started section

* audit configuration guide

* quick fix to quickstart description

* audit environment setup guide

* audit conversations/setup

* docs(adk): audit and polish ADK sections against source

Audited each ADK section against the agent-lack source repo and the
skills repo. Fixed incorrect content, documented missing features,
tightened prose, removed trailing nav Cards, and refreshed dev console
screenshots.

Corrections:
- CLI reference: added --profile global flag, corrected --format
  availability, added subsections for adk search, adk mcp, adk
  telemetry, adk theme
- HITL: switched integration deps to string shorthand (object form is
  deprecated), reworded dev-mode warning to match the real constraint
- Skills: matched install command args to source (-a codex claude-code),
  added adk_init_project to the MCP tools table
- Evals: fixed Eval import path (@botpress/runtime -> @botpress/adk)
  and evals directory (src/evals -> evals), documented event/
  expectSilence turns and idleTimeout
- Debugging: removed bogus 'adk logs "webhook"' content-filter example,
  added since= and limit= tokens
- Scripts: updated flag pass-through example to use -- separator
- Actions: fixed callAction curl (chat.botpress.cloud ->
  api.botpress.cloud, added Authorization header)
- Triggers: removed incorrect client parameter from handler table

Documented missing features:
- Tables: computed columns, \$options regex modifier, keyColumn,
  waitComputed
- Actions: cached prop
- Knowledge: search() method, Directory source options, description role
- Zai: summarize format/intermediateFactor/sliding, answer() response
  types, rate() multi-criteria, group() initialGroups/maxGroups

Flow and structure:
- Rewrote evals with cleaner ordering
- Restructured knowledge page with dev console inlined after Create
- Moved action-vs-tool comparison to the asTool subsection
- Tightened intros on knowledge and actions pages
- Inlined dev console mentions into Create sections across pages
- Removed trailing next-page Cards from nearly every page

Screenshots updated: actions, agent-steps, evals, knowledge, logs,
tables, traces, triggers.
