Gemini 3.8 Flash Errors Under Antigravity Load
An Antigravity status update says high demand is causing Gemini 3.8 Flash requests to fail. The team is working on a fix and plans to reset rate limits once service stabilizes.
This is a meaningful reliability warning for developers adopting agentic coding workflows: Flash speed matters little when capacity cannot keep up.
- –Gemini 3.8 Flash is Antigravity’s flagship model for coding and agent tasks, widening the incident’s impact.
- –Google says complex tasks use extra reasoning steps, iterative tool calls, and verification, increasing demand per request.
- –Developers should temporarily reduce thinking effort, use Gemini 3.7 Flash, and add retry backoff for non-interactive workloads.
- –Resetting rate limits will restore access, but sustained reliability depends on resolving the underlying capacity constraint.
