Why Antigravity Agents Hang on ssh, sudo, and git rebase -i — Diagnosing and Permanently Fixing the Missing TTY Problem
When you ask an Antigravity agent to deploy, the terminal panel stops on 'password:' and never moves. The agent isn't broken — the shell behind it has no PTY, so interactive prompts have no one to answer them. Here's how to diagnose and remove every interactive command from your agent workflow.
Why Antigravity's Agent Keeps Referencing the Previous Repo After You Switch Projects — Diagnosis and Fix
When Antigravity carries leftover state from your previous project into a new one, the agent confidently edits files that don't belong to the current repo. Here's how to diagnose and prevent that context bleed.
Why Antigravity's AI Agent Misreads .env Values — Quoting, Whitespace, and Export Pitfalls
When Antigravity's agent writes or reads .env files, subtle differences in quoting, trailing whitespace, export prefixes, and # characters cause silent value corruption. Here are four real cases I hit in production, with concrete diagnostics and fixes.
Why Antigravity's Workspace Indexing Stalls on Large Repositories — and How to Fix It
A walk-through of why Antigravity's indexer can spin forever on a monorepo, with the diagnostic steps and fixes I use on my own 12 GB repository.
Why Antigravity Agents Hit `Permission denied` on git push, and How to Fix It for Good
Your Antigravity agent finishes the edits, tests pass, the commit message is sharp — and then git push fails with `remote: Permission to ... denied` or `fatal: Authentication failed`. Here's the diagnostic flow I actually use for multi-account, multi-PAT setups, plus the long-term fixes that keep the error from coming back.
When Antigravity Agent Edits Break Diffs Due to Mixed CRLF/LF Line Endings
Working across Windows, Mac, and Linux, you may suddenly see Antigravity Agent edits turn an entire file's diff bright red. This article walks through detecting CRLF/LF mismatches and a three-layer fix across git, the editor, and the Agent itself.
When Antigravity's AI rewrites your package.json dependencies and breaks the build
You asked Antigravity for a small visual change, and somehow twenty-three dependency lines in package.json got rewritten — carets stripped, pins bumped to latest, the build dead on arrival. Here is what triggers it, how to roll back cleanly, and three guardrails to keep it from recurring.
When Antigravity Ignores Your AGENTS.md — How to Diagnose and Fix It
You dropped an AGENTS.md at the repo root with clear rules, but the agent still pulls in banned libraries and blows past your conventions. Here is how I diagnose and fix the three most common causes I have seen across more than a hundred Antigravity sessions.
When Antigravity Fixes a RecyclerView Crash but Breaks Something Else — The Defensive Copy Solution
If RecyclerView IndexOutOfBoundsExceptions keep coming back after Antigravity's fix, shared list reference is likely the cause. Here's how to prompt Antigravity for the right fix and encode the pattern in AGENTS.md.
Library Added via Antigravity Crashes Only on Older Android Devices: The coreLibraryDesugaring Blind Spot
When a library added through Antigravity starts crashing only on Android 6/7 devices, the culprit is often missing coreLibraryDesugaring config. Learn how to diagnose and fix it from a real-world case.
