Question: Use N parallel tools/AgentTools deterministicly, determined at runtime #1351
Description
Does anyone know what is the recommended strategy to run N parallel web searches without knowing N in advance ? I want to maintain the standard Google ADK agent structure (root_agent) so I can use it in the Web UI. I need the parallelism because latency is critical.
Example: the user gives a list of N names. The agent (or deterministic workflow) runs N parallel web searches, one per person.

Were you able to figure this out?

Not yet 😓 A native feature or guide for it would be great.
I found this tutorial on the OpenAI cookbook. I will give it a shot next time I work on this and report back if it works. Otherwise, I'm still open to suggestions

use a custom agent and add the parallel agent in the custom agent. in the run async method you can define a python script to run for N times.

Or preferable define the N condition in a python function and add it to a custom agent. No parallel agent explicitly required.
