Thanks for your reply.
I just started using Antigravity today. I opened a project like using VSCode (agy my-project-folder), and encountered an error while creating the workspace rule. The above is the error message mentioned.

Hello @hawberr_i, thank you for sharing additional details.
Could you please try the following to help us verify the root cause?
1.Ensure that the configuration file (e.g., .cursorrules, .aichat, or the specific config file your workspace uses) is not read-only and that the Antigravity process has write access to the root directory.
2. Open the Developer Tools (Help > Toggle Developer Tools), go to the Console tab, and attempt to add the rule again. If you see a specific error trace (e.g., EACCES, JSON parse error, or a 403), please share that here.
3. As a workaround, can you manually edit the rule file in the editor to add your instruction? If that works, it confirms the issue is isolated to the UI/Agent interaction layer.
This is the error trace information after opening the developer tools and adding workspace rules:

I manually added files in .agent/rules, but the Agent seems to be unable to read them (@rules: No results).
Thank you for your help.
