Hi everyone,
I’m experiencing an issue when using Google AI Studio with an uploaded ZIP project.
When I upload a ZIP file containing my existing app and then ask the AI to make specific modifications (for example, update a component, fix a function, or refactor part of the code), the AI does not use the uploaded project as a base. Instead, it generates a completely new app from scratch, ignoring the contents of the ZIP file.
What I expected:
-
The AI should analyze the uploaded ZIP.
-
It should understand the existing structure and files.
-
It should modify only the requested parts of the project.
What actually happens:
-
The AI generates a brand-new project structure.
-
The original files from the ZIP are not referenced.
-
The response looks like a fresh app template instead of an edit.
Has anyone else experienced this?
Is there a specific way to prompt the AI so it works directly from the uploaded ZIP instead of rebuilding everything?
Thanks in advance!
