Designing Antigravity Agents That Survive Multi-Hour Batches — A 4-Layer Durability Pattern From the Trenches
Long-running Antigravity batch agents will fail somewhere. After running them against the operations of an indie app business, I distilled four durability layers — checkpoint granularity, persistence choice, idempotent restore, and context summarization — into a single, opinionated design memo with working code and real cost numbers.
Six Weeks of Letting an Antigravity Background Agent Watch the Drift Between AdMob and Remote Config
A six-week field report on handing weekly AdMob and Firebase Remote Config diffs to an Antigravity Background Agent, with the drift cases it actually caught and the operational boundaries I ended up drawing.
Running Antigravity 2.0 and Codex in Parallel for One Month: A Practical Selection Line for Indie Developers
A May 2026 head-to-head running Antigravity 2.0 and Codex on the same indie-development work, with the selection criteria and cost reversal line I now use.
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.
Driving Unreal Engine Projects from Antigravity — Patterns from Building an Art Installation
Attaching Antigravity 2.0 agents to an Unreal Engine 5.5 project — across Blueprints and C++ — surfaced a real division of labor between editor work and agent-driven edits. Here are the patterns that actually held up through a live installation.
Wiring Antigravity 2.0 to Chrome DevTools for agents 1.0: Lighthouse Audits, Extension Debugging, Memory Hunts, and an Operational Plan
Chrome DevTools for agents 1.0 went stable and now ships bundled with Antigravity 2.0. Here is the practical setup I run across my 50M-download indie app business: Lighthouse audits, extension QA, memory leak triage, and auto-connect rules.
Moving to the Antigravity CLI (agy): Shifting Your Scripts Off Gemini CLI Before the June 18 Shutdown — Without Downtime
A grounded walkthrough of Google's Antigravity CLI (agy): fastest setup, a no-downtime migration off Gemini CLI, a compatibility shim, the Pro vs Ultra cost break-even, and running recurring work with scheduled messages — based on actually moving my own repos across.
Three Weeks of Running Antigravity Browser Agent and Claude in Chrome Side by Side
Notes from three weeks of running Antigravity's Browser Agent and Claude in Chrome in parallel while tuning AdMob and pre-release checks for my wallpaper apps.
Antigravity × UMP/ATT Consent Rate Optimization Agent — A Weekly Autonomous Loop That Lifts AdMob Revenue Region by Region
ATT and Google UMP consent rates are hidden levers that move AdMob eCPM by 1.3–2.0x. This is a working memo on letting Antigravity sub-agents run weekly experiments on regional consent UX across six apps, and how that lifted ARPDAU.
Handing Nightly Wallpaper Asset Updates to a Background Agent — Time Budgets, Duplicate Detection, and a Completion Gate
A reproducible account of handing nightly wallpaper asset updates to Antigravity's Background Agent. Covers how to write the task definition, perceptual-hash duplicate detection, one-pass resizing across 12 device profiles, a morning report you can review in five minutes, and the time-budget and completion-gate design that makes unattended runs safe.
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.
