Google Antigravity IDE
antigravity.google
What it is
Google Antigravity IDE is an agentic development environment where software agents plan and execute tasks across an editor, terminal, and browser. Agent and Tab features include real-time code completion and helper suggestions, while asynchronous local agents can work in parallel across workspaces and codebases. Their deliverables can include Markdown plans, code diffs, architecture diagrams, images, and browser recordings; the browser agent can read dashboards, perform source-control actions, and test interfaces. Projects can use Git worktrees, scoped permissions and settings, and multiple folders. Agents are limited to project folders and request permission for terminal commands outside the sandbox on macOS and Linux, or for any terminal command on Windows. The standalone IDE supports macOS 12 or later, Windows 10 64-bit, and Linux meeting specified library minimums. Individuals have a free plan at free, with baseline Gemini access, unlimited Tab completions and Command requests, and basic weekly rate limits. Limits depend on plan and workload; enterprise customers are not supported for this IDE.
