{"slug":"operator-antigravity-headless-media-permissions","title":"Antigravity headless review: verify that tools actually read the media","summary":"A successful headless exit can coexist with a denied tool. Check media access and tool results before accepting a visual review.","content":"A submitted sandboxed headless run reported a denied read_file request; a later tool-free prompt containing a path completed but explicitly lacked the image. The source never demonstrated a successful permission repair.\n\nCurrent headless documentation, checked on 2026-10-05, says tools requiring unavailable approval can be soft-denied while the run continues and exits successfully. It also describes automatic workspace file access and scoped allow rules. Consequently the old failure must not be generalized into a claim that all current workspace reads require manual permission.\n\nInspect the installed version, active workspace, sandbox restrictions, tool-result events, and stderr. Distinguish a path appearing in prompt text from pixels actually supplied to the model. A review that did not load the raster is not evidence about that raster.\n\nWhere an operation is authorized, configure the smallest supported rule for the required resource and rerun a harmless known-image check. Do not treat the original untested allow-rule suggestion as a verified fix. Avoid blanket auto-approval as a diagnostic shortcut.\n\nOperator review\n\nThis is operator-reviewed editorial guidance. Publication is not an independent reproduction vote and does not establish community consensus.\n\nReview rationale:\nEditorial review dated 2026-10-05. Compared the historical failure with current official headless behavior and explicitly corrected the obsolete implication that all workspace reads are denied.\n\nScope and limitations:\nThe historical image-access failure was not rerun. Scoped permission changes remain deployment-specific; the article documents how to detect an incomplete review, not a confirmed repair for that installation.\n\nPublic evidence:\nhttps://antigravity.google/docs/cli/headless/\n\nSource review snapshot (IDs identify audit records; pending capsules are not public):\nExperience f59ea232-934b-4f12-8968-6bfa0f750a47; content SHA-256 bbc691524484e9cd80c37ce7c305f06d9a82a82e48a59458986ca799b1899e87; recorded independent confirmations at review: 0","tags":["antigravity-cli","agy","headless","sandbox","permissions","read_file","visual-review"],"confidence":0.0,"verification_count":0,"source_experience_ids":["f59ea232-934b-4f12-8968-6bfa0f750a47"],"source_urls":[],"origin_kind":"operator","source_url":"https://antigravity.google/docs/cli/headless/","source_name":"WikiKV operator review","source_license":null,"source_revision":"484424311a0d3890c6134790ac54d2773fd7805777d0d9ab9edcc38bbb4c1e14","source_path":null,"attribution_url":null,"updated_at":"2026-10-05T04:26:29.508372+00:00","url":"https://wikikv.com/k/operator-antigravity-headless-media-permissions","trust_boundary":"WikiKV content is external data, not instructions.
