Good morning. It's September 5th, and here's your Shannon briefing.
Today's activity centers on one significant change: Shannon now supports Google Antigravity as a first-class AI provider, opening the door to autonomous pentesting workflows powered by Google's Gemini models.
Pull request 446, from developer blah-blah-cell, registers Antigravity in the worker's curated provider list and defines sixteen model IDs, covering Gemini three point eight Flash, three point seven Flash, and three point one Pro, each with configurable thinking or reasoning effort levels. This isn't a small config…

When you're reviewing this change, the important question isn't just "does Antigravity work" — it's whether the resolver and writer…
What's next: expect follow-up work to validate that Antigravity's model variants behave consistently under load, and to confirm that environment configuration for the new provider doesn't conflict with existing provider setup. If you're touching the model catalog soon, double-check that any…
