Gemini Code Assist agents: at Cloud Next 2025 Google announces development agents and a Kanban board
In one sentence On April 9, 2025, at Google Cloud Next, Google announces Gemini Code Assist agents (in waitlist preview) for migrations, features from GitHub issues, code review, tests and documentation, managed from a Kanban board. Gemini 2.5 comes to Code Assist for individual developers.
At Google Cloud Next 2025 Google extends Gemini Code Assist, its coding assistant, with agents: instead of suggesting single lines, they take a natural-language request and turn it into multi-step, multi-file work.
The listed tasks include generating software from specifications written in Google Docs, migrating code, implementing features described in GitHub issues, code review, test generation and documentation. Agent work is tracked on a Kanban board, which also shows the plan Gemini prepares for each task.
The agents are not immediately available to everyone: access is through a preview waitlist. In the same announcement Google brings Gemini 2.5 to Code Assist for individual developers and makes Code Assist available in Android Studio.
