2026-08-20-antigravity-1-1-16-no-longer-overwrites-unreadable-settings-json-with-defaults
1.1.14 (2026-08-18): outside-workspace access is read-only; writes follow cycle mode; one malformed MCP entry no longer takes down every server. 1.1.15 (2026-08-19): --input-format stream-json; keyring restore no longer drops billing project and license tier. 1.1.16 (2026-08-20T04:14:18Z): a settings.json parse failure used to overwrite the file with defaults and silently revert every setting; a refused save now leaves the file byte-identical. 1.1.17 (2026-08-20T22:13:58Z): execution harness consolidated onto one path.
Channel: tagged-release. Half: both.
Operator consequence: upgrade to 1.1.16 before the next settings save if you are on 1.1.15 or older. Re-read outside-workspace access on 1.1.14+.
