Practical notes: Hearing the Mountain’s Roar: How Antigravity CLI’s AI Agents &

This walkthrough rebuilds the path from raw materials to a working system for: Hearing the Mountain’s Roar: How Antigravity CLI’s AI Agents & IoT Data Track Volcanic Shockwaves. The focus is operable steps, explicit checks, and code that you can drop into a repo without guessing intent. For the Overview stage, define the inputs, the owner of the step, and the exit criteria before changing code. Operators should be able to re-run the step from a known checkpoint without guessing hidden state. Document the happy path and the recovery path together. Retries, human gates, and dead-letter handling are part of the product, not later polish.

Abstract

When working through the Abstract stage, write down the contract first: required inputs, success signal, and what happens on partial failure. That checklist keeps later code changes honest. Prefer small, testable units over sprawling scripts. When a step fails, the failure should point at a single responsibility rather than a tangled pipeline. Checkpoint after expensive steps. Resume should not re-bill the same LLM call when an operator retries a later node.

1. Introduction

When working through the 1 Introduction stage, write down the contract first: required inputs, success signal, and what happens on partial failure. That checklist keeps later code changes honest. Treat this stage as a contract between inputs and validated outputs. Name the artifacts, define success checks, and refuse silent partial completion. Checkpoint after expensive steps.

Add a smoke test that exercises the critical path in CI with fixtures, not live paid APIs, whenever budgets allow.

Keep graph state flat and typed. Nested blobs hide which node wrote which field and break resume after interrupts.

Before promoting the stack, freeze versions, capture a golden transcript for the critical path, and confirm rollback steps. Shared environments need rate limits, tenancy checks, and a clear owner for secret rotation. Prefer boring reliability over clever one-off demos.
