Antigravity CLI 1.1.28 turns a print-timeout overrun into a successful exit — rechecking unattended runs
Since 1.1.28, an expired --print-timeout returns partial output and exits successfully instead of failing. Fetching an external URL now asks for approval first. Here is how I rebuilt an unattended pipeline that judged everything by the exit code.
Answering the age-rating questionnaire from a file in the repo, not from memory
The App Store age-rating questionnaire became mandatory in September 2026. Here is how I moved the answers into a declaration file in the repo and had a stdlib-only script argue back, with the real output.
A dependency without musllinux wheels doesn't fail on Alpine. It just gets slower
On Alpine, a dependency without musllinux wheels can quietly fall back to pure Python. Protobuf went from 0.043ms to 36.2ms, and pip reported no error.
How Silently Ignored Config Keys Slip Through CI, and Where to Block Them
A key you added to a config file can be discarded without a single warning. Measured behavior across tsc, ESLint, wrangler, npm and vitest, plus a probe that verifies a setting is actually in effect and a wrapper that turns warnings into build failures.
Seven Characters Don't Only Point at Commits — Measuring When Your Agent's Recorded Hashes Stop Resolving
Short commit hashes recorded by an agent quietly stop resolving as a repository grows. Measuring where ambiguity begins, fixing the recording side, and building a batch verification gate.
A Typo in agent.md Quietly Widened My Permissions — Writing a Strict Frontmatter Lint
Misspelled keys in agent.md frontmatter do not raise errors. They fall back to defaults, and for permission fields that fallback points the wrong way. Here is the failure I hit, the lint I wrote to catch it, and what the measurements showed.
An Agent's ORM Code Made p95 Five Times Slower — Measuring Query Counts and Blocking Them in CI
N+1 queries slip past code review because the code looks correct. Here is a CI gate that measures query counts and judges them by their slope against input size, with working code and real numbers.
When Your Agent's Files Vanish Into .gitignore — A Pre-Commit Detection Gate
When an agent writes files that match .gitignore, the diff review looks perfect but nothing lands in the commit. Here is a gate script that catches ignored build output before you push, plus the tuning it needs.
Running Pre-Release Checks Without Opening the IDE — Designing the Android CLI as the Verification Gate of an Unattended Pipeline
How to slot Android CLI v1.0 into an unattended pipeline as its verification gate — three layers of checks, an exit-code contract, and a density-by-locale matrix, sized for an indie developer's day-to-day.
From Gemini CLI to Antigravity CLI: Migrating Without Stopping Your Automation
Gemini CLI has been retired and the Go-rewritten Antigravity CLI is now its successor. If you have the CLI wired into CI or scheduled jobs, swapping everything at once will break your automation. Here is a concrete plan for migrating gradually, from parallel testing to full cutover.
On Cutover Day to the Antigravity CLI, Verify Production Automation by Side-Effect Equivalence, Not Output
On the day you switch from the Gemini CLI to the Antigravity CLI, verify production automation by the equivalence of side effects — files written, commits, network calls — instead of matching stdout. A sandbox parallel run and a go/no-go cutover gate, with implementation steps.
Does the New CLI Do the Same Job? An Output-Parity Gate Before Switching to Antigravity CLI
With Gemini CLI shutting down on June 18, here is how I froze the old CLI's artifacts as a golden baseline and built a parity harness to catch regressions before cutting over to Antigravity CLI — with normalization and a go/no-go gate, in code.
