Google Antigravity 2.0, the standalone agent-first development platform that replaced Gemini CLI earlier this year, just shipped a batch of quality-of-life improvements across its desktop app and CLI. The headliners: a new built-in antigravity_guide skill, audio file rendering support, and improved substring-based file search. None of these are earth-shattering on their own, but together they chip away at the friction that has kept the platform feeling rough around the edges since its rocky 2.0 launch.
The guide that was missing all along
If you have ever been mid-conversation with an Antigravity agent and had to alt-tab to the docs to remember a slash command or SDK method, the new antigravity_guide skill is for you. It provides instant, in-context reference guides for Antigravity 2.0, the CLI, the IDE, and the SDK, all without leaving the agent session. Think of it as a built-in cheat sheet the agent can consult on your behalf.
This matters more than it sounds. Antigravity 2.0 is a sprawling platform now, a complete ecosystem of products designed for the agent-first era, with a flagship standalone app for managing multiple local agents in parallel, running scheduled tasks, and more. Keeping track of what is available where is genuinely hard, and having a skill that surfaces that knowledge inline closes a real usability gap.
