I primarily use Gemini 3 Flash with a GUI coding agent I made by myself and its been able to successfully one-shot mostly any task I throw at it. Why would I ever use a more expensive reasoning and slower reasoning model? I am impressed with the library knowledge Gemini knows, I don't use any skills or MCP and its able to implement functions to perfection. No one crawls more data than Google and their model reflects that in my experience.
My experience with Antigravity was that 3 Pro can reason itself out of Gemini’s typical loops, but won’t actually achieve it (it gets stuck).
3 Flash usually doesn't get into any loops, but then again, it’s also not really following prompts properly. I’ve tried all manner of harnesses around what it shouldn’t do, but it often ignores some instructions. It also doesn’t follow design specs at all, it will output React code that is 70% like what it was asked to do.
My experience with Stitch is the same. Gemini has nice free-use tiers, but it wastes a lot of my time with reprompting it.
I'm curious, what's the agent like?
If I were to build something for Gemini models I'd plan around ingesting a bunch of context then oneshotting it.
