ROBOTICS — The ER 1.6 preview that shut down on August 31 does have a successor. Gemini Robotics ER 2 is in public preview, in both standard and streaming variantsVIDEO — ER 2 judges success and failure from live video rather than still snapshots, which is what lets it catch spills, slips, and misalignments while a task is still runningDEADLINE — Next up is September 30, when gemini-omni-flash-preview is retired. The target is gemini-omni-1.1-flash, GA since August 27, and there are now under four weeks leftAPIKEY — Every remaining standard API key, restricted ones included, stops working during September. The replacement is an auth key bound to a Google Cloud service accountPRICE — Gemini 3.7 Flash keeps its introductory $0.75/$3.75 per 1M through December 31, then moves to $1.50/$7.50 on January 1, 2027.

Measure a Managed Agent's Behavior Against Fixed Scenarios Before It Reaches Production

The public-preview Managed Agents run autonomously inside an isolated sandbox, so a small prompt or config change can quietly shift their behavior. Diffing the output once, the way you would for a single prompt, is not enough. Here is how to build a regression harness that runs fixed scenarios repeatedly and judges on pass rate, plus a shadow to canary to full promotion with automatic rollback, all with runnable Python.

A Promotion Gate So gemini-flash-latest Flipping to 3.5 Flash Doesn't Break Your Pipeline at 3 AM

Floating aliases like gemini-flash-latest swap their target on every GA, quietly shifting the assumptions your unattended automation depends on. Here is a role-to-pinned-ID indirection layer, an acceptance harness that measures four metrics against your own golden set, and threshold-driven promotion and automatic rollback — with working code.

Don't Let Your Gemini Prompts Silently Rot — A Practical Regression Testing Playbook with Pytest

Ever tweaked a prompt and watched production quality quietly degrade? This article walks through testing Gemini API prompts with Pytest, combining snapshot tests and LLM-as-Judge to catch regressions automatically — all from the perspective of an individual developer running things solo.
