Adding new devices to Google Home Ecosystem is a capability provided by the Commissioning API, part of the Home APIs. Currently this API only supports adding Matter devices to the ecosystem. Once invoked, the API will bring forward a screen that users can scan QR codes from Matter devices to proceed with device commissioning.
