Agent Platform Workbench Enhances Cloud Storage Integration and Notebook Reliability
Agent Platform Workbench has been updated with fixes that enhance Cloud Storage integration and improve notebook reliability. Users will experience more responsive terminal and file browser operations in mounted Cloud Storage buckets, which now also remount automatically after instance restarts. The update also resolves an issue of unexpected notebook cell erasure and enables internal agents to honor custom CA certificates for TLS verification in proxy environments. These improvements increase the platform's stability, performance, and operational consistency.

Fixes (10) ›
- Agent Platform Workbench
The terminal and file browser are now more responsive when working in a Cloud Storage bucket that is mounted through the file browser. Frequent background checks for non-existent files are now cached instead of repeatedly querying Cloud Storage, which previously could make actions such as listing files or running terminal commands take several seconds.
- Agent Platform Workbench
Cloud Storage buckets that you mount through the file browser are now automatically re-mounted after the instance is restarted or is stopped and started. Previously the mounted folder could be left behind as an empty, unusable directory that had to be manually removed and re-mounted.

Fixed an issue where a notebook's cells and their outputs could be unexpectedly erased. The automatic reload of an open notebook (which keeps it in sync with changes made to its file on disk) is now restricted to run only while the Gemini CLI is in use, so notebooks are no longer overwritten at other times.
