Building a Weather Agent on Android with Koog

In this session, you will learn the basics of Koog, the new open-source Kotlin framework for building AI agents on the JVM. I'll guide you through building a small Android app that uses Koog to ask a language model for weather forecasts and then displays the results. We'll cover: • How to add Koog to an Android project setup • How to write a simple single-run agent that talks to a weather API • How to connect the agent to an LLM (like OpenAI or Google Gemini) • How to show the forecast in a basic Compose UI No prior experience with Koog is needed. By the end you will have a simple working Android app and code that shows how to build your own agents in Kotlin.
