Deployment Pipeline

Three targets fed by one hardened build. Lanes: Developer, Cloud Build, Runtime.

Key facts:

• The public Cloud Run build disables paid ADK/Gemini execution and does not receive model credentials.
• Self-controlled Agent Engine or GKE live deployments load credentials at runtime; secrets are never baked into images ([[Deployment]]).
• The Dockerfile runs as a non-root user with a healthcheck on port 8000.
• Agent Engine deployments use deployment/.agent_engine_config.json for hardware config and add managed Memory Bank ([[Memory Layers]] Layer 3).
• The A2A server is a separate serving surface for agent-to-agent calls ([[MCP and A2A]]).
