Three Prompts I Tried When Antigravity's Code Felt Correct But Not Mine
When Antigravity's output runs but never quite fits your codebase, the gap is usually missing design context. Three prompting patterns for handing over intent — plus the cases where even that wasn't enough, from real indie development.
Measuring the Go-Based Antigravity CLI's Responsiveness to Rethink My Nightly Batch
The Antigravity CLI was reimplemented in Go, and startup and first-response feel different now. I measure startup, time-to-first-token, and throughput as three separate intervals, then use those numbers to move my nightly batch from serial to parallel.
Turning 'the Antigravity CLI feels faster' into a number with hyperfine
The Go-based Antigravity CLI feels snappier to start. Here is how to turn that impression into a reproducible number with hyperfine: warm vs cold runs, cumulative cost in automation, and a CI gate that catches regressions.
Keep Side Questions Out of Your Main Thread with Antigravity's /btw
How Antigravity 2.1.4's /btw slash command routes side questions to a disposable subagent so your main agent's context stays clean through long tasks.
A Week of Coding Hands-Free with Antigravity 2.0's Live Voice Transcription
Antigravity 2.0 added Gemini Audio-based live transcription right inside the editor. After a week of using it in real work, here's an honest take on how it differs from external dictation tools, how it handles technical terms, and where it actually earns its place.
This Week at Antigravity Lab: Five Posts on Deciding How Much to Hand Over to Agents
Editor's notes on five posts: sizing agent tasks by what you can review, delegating dependency updates by risk tier, a StoreKit 2 migration case study, and a Japanese UI setup guide.
Why Antigravity Agent Edits Vanish with Auto Save (and How to Stop It)
When Antigravity's agent stream collides with the editor's Auto Save, parts of an applied diff silently disappear. This guide walks through the exact conditions that trigger it and a three-step fix you can keep across projects.
Fixing Japanese Mojibake (Garbled Text) in Antigravity's Integrated Terminal
When git log, npm errors, or filenames containing Japanese characters turn into gibberish like 譁?ュ怜喧縺 in Antigravity's integrated terminal, the fix usually takes one or two lines per platform. Here are the Windows, macOS, and WSL2 patterns I keep running into.
Why Antigravity's Agent Keeps Referencing the Previous Repo After You Switch Projects — Diagnosis and Fix
When Antigravity carries leftover state from your previous project into a new one, the agent confidently edits files that don't belong to the current repo. Here's how to diagnose and prevent that context bleed.
When Antigravity's AI rewrites your package.json dependencies and breaks the build
You asked Antigravity for a small visual change, and somehow twenty-three dependency lines in package.json got rewritten — carets stripped, pins bumped to latest, the build dead on arrival. Here is what triggers it, how to roll back cleanly, and three guardrails to keep it from recurring.
What I Learned After Putting Antigravity to Work on 50M-Download Apps
An honest review from 12 years of solo app development and over 50 million total downloads — what Antigravity handles well, where it falls short, and what surprised me most.
4 Steps to Handle Deprecated API Suggestions from Antigravity
A practical 4-step approach to diagnosing, fixing, and preventing deprecated API suggestions from Antigravity — based on real iOS/Android indie development experience since 2014.
