Localizing Antigravity 2.0 to Japanese — The Three-Layer Setup for Menus, Commands, and AI Responses

Installing the Japanese Language Pack in Antigravity 2.0 only translates part of the UI. To get a clean Japanese experience — menus, command palette, AI responses — you need to configure three independent layers. Here is the exact setup I run as an indie developer at Dolice, plus which parts I deliberately leave in English.

When Antigravity Reads Cloud-Synced Files as Empty: The Online-Only Placeholder Trap

A file is right there in Finder, yet the Antigravity agent insists it is empty or missing. The culprit is an online-only placeholder created by cloud sync. Here is how to spot it, hydrate the data, and design a workspace that avoids the problem.

Handing Off IDE Work to the Chat Agent: Passing Context Through a File After the Two-App Split

Since Antigravity 2.0 split into an IDE and a chat-style agent app, context you build up in one does not carry into the other. Here is a file-based approach that makes a single file in your repo the source of truth for handoff, with a schema, a validation script, and a way to pin it with a Guide skill.

The Built-in Guide Skill Is Only Advice — Pair It With a Gate That Mechanically Rejects Antigravity's Output

The v2.2.1 built-in Guide skill raises how often the agent complies, but it is still probabilistic advice. Here is the design for a deterministic gate that reliably stops the violations that slip through, with working code and measured results.

Precedence for Nested AGENTS.md: A Merge Design for Many Projects in One Workspace

Put several projects in one workspace, each with its own AGENTS.md, and which instruction the agent follows turns ambiguous. Root and per-project rules quietly collide; one wins, or both blend. Taking 'closer is stronger' as the base rule, this designs a merge that distinguishes overriding from appending, with working Python and field notes.
