It uses the ADK (Agent Development Kit) to define a root agent named Auditor, which coordinates two sub-agents, Critic and Reviser, to verify and refine model-generated answers.\n\nCritic: Verifies factual claims using the toolset, such as DuckDuckGo. Reviser: Edits answers based on the verification verdicts provided by the Critic. Auditor: A higher-level agent that sequences the Critic and Reviser. It acts as the entry point, evaluating LLM-generated answers, verifying them, and refining the final output.\n\nAll of the application's behavior is defined in Python under the agents/ directory. Here's a breakdown of the notable files\n\nagents/agent.py: Defines the Auditor, a SequentialAgent that chains together the Critic and Reviser agents. This agent is the main entry point of the application and is responsible for auditing LLM-generated content using real-world verification tools.\n\nagents/sub_agents/critic/agent.py: Defines the Critic agent. It loads the language model (via Docker Model Runner), sets the agent’s name and behavior, and connects to MCP tools (like DuckDuckGo).\n\nagents/sub_agents/critic/prompt.py: Contains the Critic prompt, which instructs the agent to extract and verify claims using external tools.\n\nagents/sub_agents/critic/tools.py: Defines the MCP toolset configuration, including parsing mcp/ strings, creating tool connections, and handling MCP gateway communication.\n\nagents/sub_agents/reviser/agent.py: Defines the Reviser agent, which takes the Critic’s findings and minimally rewrites the original answer. It also includes callbacks to clean up the LLM output and ensure it's in the right format.\n\nagents/sub_agents/reviser/prompt.py: Contains the Reviser prompt, which instructs the agent to revise the answer text based on the verified claim verdicts.\n\nThe MCP gateway is configured via the MCPGATEWAY_ENDPOINT environment variable. In this case, This allows the app to use Server-Sent Events (SSE) to communicate with the MCP gateway container, which itself brokers access to external tool services like DuckDuckGo.\n\nAttribution: Adapted from Docker Documentation under Apache-2.0.
