Google Antigravity

What's great

The agent workflow seemed like a meaningful improvement over Cursor. It was easy to follow the agent's code exploration and "though process". The review workflow made it feel very natural to iterate on the agent's proposed solution.

What needs improvement

The onboarding/trial felt weak somehow. I ran out of free-usage fairly quickly, and it fell over onto weaker models. I wasn't prompted to upgrade. For a new product, I'd expect to be able to trial it fully-featured, and then decide whether to upgrade.

There were some UI bugs, but nothing I couldn't live with for a new product.

vs Alternatives

The most important thing is going to be model accuracy. It's worth giving up on UX for better code generation.

In that sense, I actually stalled. Antigravity had momentum, but then stalled and failed over to weaker models. I had to get back to work, so I switched back to Cursor + Claude Code.

How transparent are agent plans and decision steps?

Extremely. And, the agent "thought process" is very discoverable.

How well does it handle large monorepos and workspaces?

It seemed to grok our moderate Rails monorepo pretty smoothly.

What guardrails prevent destructive terminal or repo actions?

There's a planning mode (default) that I think did a standard job at. I didn't notice any guardrails

What latency do you see between prompts and actions?

It felt very fast until I ran out of credits and decided to just stop working.

Still has some minor UI quirks and small bugs as expected with a new tool, but nothing that stops the workflow. I’m excited to see more built-in skills added.

How well do the autonomous agents handle multi-file refactors?

Incredibly well. It’s the only tool I’ve found that actually researches the dependencies across the whole codebase before proposing a change, rather than just guessing.

Does it integrate smoothly with my current IDE?

It has completely replaced my previous setup. The transition was smooth, and it handles my local environment much better than typical cloud-based AI tools

Did it reduce code review time and defect rates?

As a solo dev, it has significantly reduced my "self-review" time. The implementation plans it generates allow me to catch design flaws before the code is even written
