The File Is Right There in ls, and Your Agent Still Can't Open It
The agent says the file does not exist. Your terminal says it does. After three days of blaming cloud sync, the answer turned out to be that one voiced consonant mark was never a single character. Detection script and a three-layer gate included.
You Can Measure a Request Before You Send It — Sizing Agent Tasks by Working Backward from Rework Rate
When an Antigravity agent returns code that misses the mark, the cause is rarely the wording of the prompt. It is the size of the task. Here is a Python scorer that grades a request before you send it, plus what happened when I scored 80 past requests against their actual rework outcomes.
When Your Agent's Commits Pick Up Junk Files: Fixing It With Staging Scope and a Message Convention
Agents tend to run git add -A, sweeping .bak files and caches into your history, and leave a one-word message. Here is how a staging allowlist, a preflight, and a fill-in message template stop it.
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.
Running Xcode 27's Agent and Antigravity Side by Side: Designing the Work Boundary for iOS
With Xcode 27 bringing agentic coding into the IDE itself, iOS development now has two code-writing agents over one repository. Here is a practical design for keeping a single source of truth and splitting work across spec, implementation, and verification.
Hearing the Audio an Agent Made, Right Inside the Conversation
A recent Antigravity point release added inline audio rendering in the conversation view. Here is how playing agent-made audio in place changes the way I audition sound assets for my apps.
What Tripped Me Up First When Antigravity 2.0 Split the IDE and the Agent Into Separate Apps
Antigravity 2.0's modular layout splits the IDE and the chat-style agent into two separate apps. Here is the moment their file states drifted apart on me, and the save discipline I now use to keep a single source of truth.
Splitting a Giant Antigravity Diff Into Meaningful Commits
Are you committing the agent's 400-line diffs as a single blob? Here is a practical workflow, with scripts, for re-splitting an unreviewable bulk commit into one concern per commit.
Combining All Four Antigravity Surfaces in One Project — Up to Running Your Own SDK Agent
How to split a single project across Antigravity 2.0, CLI, IDE, and SDK, and how to bridge between them — from diverging on design to converging on production, all the way to running a small custom agent with the Python SDK, with implementation included.
Tracing What a Long Agent Run Actually Did: Review That Starts From In-Conversation Search
How to use the in-conversation search added in Antigravity v2.1.4 as the starting point for reviewing long agent runs. Choosing search terms, the decision points to inspect, and reconciling with background-agent logs, with concrete steps.
Migrating to Antigravity 2.0 Without Stopping Your Automation: Parallel-Run and Rollback Design
How to move to Antigravity 2.0 without breaking running automation: how to set up a parallel-run window, verify output parity, pin versions, and keep a one-command rollback path, based on migrating four sites one at a time.
Using the v2.1.4 Quota Screen for a Weekly Reckoning: Reading Used and Remaining to Run an Indie Budget
How to turn the used/remaining display in the reworked Antigravity v2.1.4 quota screen into a weekly reckoning instead of a gut feeling. Baseline recording, burn-rate math, and allocation across multiple projects, written as an indie-dev operating routine.
