Whenever the agent tries to execute a command I get the following error:

```auto
$ env | grep ANTIGRAVITY
rm: cannot remove '/tmp/antigravity-nsjail-sandbox-2308344138/deny4': Permission denied
rm: cannot remove '/tmp/antigravity-nsjail-sandbox-2308344138/deny0': Permission denied

```

```auto
$ id
rm: cannot remove '/tmp/antigravity-nsjail-sandbox-3240586211/deny4': Permission denied
rm: cannot remove '/tmp/antigravity-nsjail-sandbox-3240586211/deny0': Permission denied

```

```auto
$ echo "hello"
rm: cannot remove '/tmp/antigravity-nsjail-sandbox-2367670985/deny4': Permission denied
rm: cannot remove '/tmp/antigravity-nsjail-sandbox-2367670985/deny0': Permission denied

```

This makes sandbox mode useless.

Any luck fixing or working around this? I am about to drop Antigravity entirely because of this issue
