  "title": "Gemini API Managed Agents: 3.6 Flash, hooks, and more",
  "why_included": "Use pre- and post-tool hooks for policy checks, and cap autonomous loops with max_total_tokens while preserving resumable state.",
  "summary": "Gemini Managed Agents now add model selection, sandbox hooks, token caps, schedules, and free-tier access, covering several controls needed for unattended coding work.",
  "practical_implication": "Add hooks where tool calls need policy checks, linting, or audit output, and set max_total_tokens on autonomous loops. A capped run pauses as incomplete while preserving its environment, so it can resume with a new budget and previous interaction ID.",
  "agent_context": "Gemini Managed Agents now default to **Gemini 3.6 Flash**. The service adds pre- and post-tool hooks, explicit model selection, scheduled triggers, free-tier access, environment management, and persistent files across scheduled runs.\n\nAdd hooks where tool calls need policy checks, linting, or audit output, and set **max_total_tokens** on autonomous loops. A capped run pauses as incomplete while preserving its environment, so it can resume with a new budget and previous interaction ID.\n\nThe agent remains a preview identified as antigravity-preview-05-2026. Scheduled runs reuse a sandbox, which is useful for stateful work but makes cleanup, state drift, and hook failure behavior important operational concerns.",
