Agent Graph checkpoints and HITL gates ship in ADK 0.9

The latest ADK release adds pause/resume checkpoints and human-in-the-loop approval gates — so agent workflows can recover from failure and respect policy at every step.

ADK 0.9 introduces durable checkpoints across Agent Graph workflows, allowing teams to pause execution, inspect state, and resume from the last committed step. Human-in-the-loop gates can block downstream nodes until an approver signs off in the control plane.

Highlights

  • Checkpoint persistence with configurable retention
  • HITL gates wired to IAM roles and treaty policy
  • SDK helpers for pause, resume, and approval callbacks
  • Compatible with existing AgentApp packaging

ADK 0.9 is available now via the standard SDK channels. Upgrade guides and migration notes are published alongside the release.
