Using AGY CLI

Settings

Antigravity CLI provides a flexible configuration system to customize workspace behavior, safety restrictions, editor preferences, visual style, and performance.

Configuration File: Stored in a plain JSON file ~/.gemini/antigravity-cli/settings.json.
Settings Panel: Type /config or /settings to open a full-screen overlay menu listing all available options.
- Select a setting to open its list of options or a text input field.
- Immediately save your selection to the disk and return to the main list.
Overrides: Certain settings can be overridden at launch via CLI flags (e.g., --sandbox or --dangerously-skip-permissions).
- The settings menu will display an indicator showing where the override came from (e.g., Sandbox Mode on overridden by --sandbox).
- You can still edit the persistent setting on disk, but the current session will enforce the command-line override until restarted.

Quick Tips

Action/Feature	Tip/Command
Auto-complete to file paths	`@` will trigger path suggestions
Clear Prompt	Type `esc esc` to clear your prompt box (when no streaming is active)
Terminal Commands	Use `!` at the start of your prompt to run terminal commands directly
Help	Type `?` to get help and list all slash commands
Reduce Noise from Tool Calls	Set verbosity to low in `/config` to minimize outputs from numerous tool calls
Manage Permissions	Control permissions via `/config` or `/permissions`
Go Back in Conversation	Use `/rewind` or `/undo` to rewind the conversation history
Fork Conversation	Use `/fork` to spin up a separate workspace and branch the conversation from an earlier point
Clear Conversation	Use `/clear` to clear the prompt and start a new conversation session
Resume Conversation	Use `/resume` to list and resume previous conversation logs
Auto-Save Resume	When you close the CLI, it automatically prints the exact command needed to resume that specific session

Keybindings

AGY CLI allows for custom keybindings. You can edit them by typing /keybindings or modifying the JSON file directly.

File Location: ~/.gemini/antigravity-cli/keybindings.json.
Reset: To reset to default, delete the keybindings.json file.

You can map a single action to many keybindings in the JSON file. To disable keybindings, set the list to empty (e.g., []). If the file is malformed, the CLI will use the valid parts and fall back to defaults for the broken actions.
