Chats/Agents Lost After Force Closing Antigravity

Hi everyone,

I have been experiencing a persistent issue with Antigravity for the past few weeks and was finally able to reproduce it reliably.

Issue

When Antigravity is closed forcefully instead of using the close button, all chats or agents created during that session are lost.

By session, I mean the entire time Antigravity remains open after launch.

Steps to Reproduce

  1. Open Antigravity (new or existing window).

  2. Create a chat or agent with a simple prompt like: "reply with one word: hello"

  3. Force close Antigravity by logging out of Ubuntu instead of using the (X) button.

  4. Log back in and reopen Antigravity.

Result

The chat or agent is missing. There can be many ways that Antigravity will be closed forcefully, like Ubuntu session crash (Due to RAM overflow) etc.

Comparison

If I repeat the same steps but close Antigravity using the (X) button, the chat is saved and restored correctly after reopening.

Expected Behavior

Chats or agents should persist even if the app is closed due to system logout or force close.

Has anyone else encountered this issue? Or is there any setting or workaround to prevent this data loss?

Thanks!

NOTE: I had already provided feedback from the Antigravity itself. I hope the Antigravity team will look into this.

I have noticed that even when it seems to work properly, that the chats get corrupted and the AI can’t actually access them. The language wrapper pushes your chats to the server, but whatever they do with them doesn’t help the AI, because it needs the non-corrupted chats on your hard drive to do anything with.

Even when this doesn’t happen, the chats get compressed and the thought process the AI had gets lost.

Also, the format it saves the chats as can be read by antigravity (most the time), but are a super pain to import anywhere else.

Chat logs (and ai thought processes) are extremely important, but are a joke in AG.

Honeslty, we were not expecting this from such tech giant. We saw many lacks in cursor, or other AI IDEs but the Antigravity get sometime more worse than those IDEs.

The development process is getting with the AI. No industry standard patterns followed, no code of conduct. A single codebase has many patterns of implementation.
