Gemini Interactions - Basic

Run a GeminiInteractions agent through sync, streaming, and async response calls.

Basic example using the Gemini Interactions API.

The four source calls are independent runs. To chain a conversation, add from agno.db.in_memory import InMemoryDb, then configure the agent with db=InMemoryDb() and add_history_to_context=True. This keeps assistant metadata available so later requests can include previous_interaction_id; use durable storage for continuation across restarts.

The Interactions API provides server-side conversation history management,
so only new messages are sent each turn instead of the full history.
