Google Antigravity isn't just an IDE update; it's a paradigm shift. It combines an Editor, an Agent Manager, and a Browser into a unified "home base" for the agentic era. You are no longer just a coder; you are an architect of solutions.
Three Core Work Surfaces
1. Agent Manager
Orchestrate agents across workspaces. Delegate tasks, manage background processes, and "multi-thread" your development workflow.
2. Editor
Deeply integrated with agents. Tab-autocomplete on steroids, context-aware refactoring, and seamless handoffs between manual code and agent generation.
3. Browser
A headless browser under agent control. Agents can click, scroll, and test your features in real-time, closing the verification loop.
Artifacts System
Antigravity communicates through structured artifacts, not just chat bubbles.
Task List
Real-time tracking of agent progress and sub-tasks.
Implementation Plan
A research-backed roadmap generated *before* code changes. Review and comment like a Google Doc.
Walkthrough
Proof of work. Screenshots, diffs, and test results allowing you to merge with confidence.
New Workflows
Visual Feedback Revolution
Mark up screenshots like a design tool. Give agents precise visual feedback on UI implementations.
Closed-Loop Verification
The agent doesn't just write code; it runs it. It spawns a browser, interacts with the app, and verifies functionality before reporting back.
Background Agents
Spin up parallel tasks. Let a background agent handle a refactor while you focus on a new feature in the foreground.
