Before You Narrow the Page Range in Antigravity 2.11.0, Find Your Resolution Floor
I measured the new page range and MediaResolution options in view_file against a 240-page document. Resolution moved the numbers more than the page range did, and setting it too low drops words without raising a single error.
What @ Includes Actually Shrink When You Split Agent Rule Files
I split my rule files using Antigravity 2.11.0's @path/to/file includes and measured the before and after across four real repositories. Maintenance surface dropped 62 percent. What a session actually reads dropped 1.7 percent. Here is why, plus the code that catches the silent failure mode.
A Green Build Is Not Proof That Your pbxproj Edit Was Correct
When an agent edits project.pbxproj, the build stays green while resources and script phases quietly fall out. Four structural checks and an audit script that finishes in 0.1 seconds on a 1,200-file project, drawn from running iOS apps in production.
Three things I had to fix before my status line could tell me what a session cost
Getting real session cost into a custom Antigravity CLI status line took three fixes: how the script reads stdin, how to tell whether your build sends a cost field, and how to keep a usage ledger that does not double-count.
Building a Verification Loop With Antigravity 2.10.0's Embedded Terminal
Antigravity 2.10.0 puts a terminal in the sidebar. Here is how I pinned my pre-merge checks down to three commands, scoped them to changed files only, and what the measured difference turned out to be.
Three Byte-Level Checks I Run Before an Agent Edits Files That Contain Japanese
When an agent edit swaps a single multi-byte character, git shows it as an ordinary one-line change. Here is how I fold invalid UTF-8, replacement characters, and normalization drift into one pass.
Redrawing Your Workspace Boundary Now That Review Mode Auto-Approves Reads
Antigravity CLI 1.1.20 made in-workspace reads auto-approved in review mode. Here is what I found when I actually counted what became readable across two real working trees.
What I Line Up in PowerShell Before Letting Antigravity Agents Run Commands on Windows
Antigravity agents tend to write bash-shaped commands, and on Windows those do not survive the trip. I ran PowerShell 7.6.5 locally and measured four things: chaining operators, aliases, exit codes, and output encoding. Here is where Windows PowerShell 5.1 diverges, and what belongs in a rules file.
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.
Four Reasons Your .antigravityignore Rules Are Not Taking Effect
Rules that quietly do nothing, and rules that swallow the whole repository. Here are four causes behind both, each checked one at a time against a gitignore-style matcher.
The Cleanup Step Removed the Working Directory, Not Its Contents — Making Unattended Destruction Fail Closed
An unattended cleanup step deleted the working directory itself instead of what was inside it. Here is why the mkdir -p that followed was not a safety net, and how a defensive-looking default value ended up selecting the destructive branch, with the actual verification output.
A Triage Order for WebP and Opus Attachments That Never Reach the Agent
Hub 2.9.1 added WebP attachments on August 20, and CLI 1.1.17 fixed Ogg-family audio being rejected by the model on the same day. Here is why rejection happens on the sending side rather than in the file, with the MIME results I actually measured.
