Feature Request: Official VS Code Extension for Antigravity IDE

Summary

Please provide an official VS Code extension that brings the Antigravity experience directly into Visual Studio Code, similar to how Claude Code integrates with VS Code.

Background

Antigravity is an impressive agentic development environment, but many developers already use VS Code as their primary IDE and have heavily customized workflows built around it.

Switching to a separate IDE introduces friction because developers must leave behind:

  • Existing extensions
  • Themes and settings
  • Remote SSH configurations
  • Dev Containers
  • Workspace configurations
  • Keyboard shortcuts
  • Established development workflows

For many developers, VS Code is already the central hub for development, and an official extension would significantly lower the barrier to adopting Antigravity.

Requested Features

An official VS Code extension should provide:

Core Agent Experience

  • Embedded Antigravity chat panel
  • Full access to Antigravity agents
  • Context-aware workspace understanding
  • Multi-file code editing
  • Codebase analysis

Planning & Task Management

  • Agent planning view
  • Task breakdown and execution tracking
  • Todo management
  • Progress monitoring
  • Long-running task visibility

Development Workflow

  • Terminal integration
  • Git integration
  • Diff review and approval workflow
  • File generation and artifact viewing
  • Command execution visibility

Advanced Features

  • Multi-agent collaboration
  • Browser automation workflows
  • Integration with the agy CLI
  • Support for local and remote development environments
  • Workspace-level memory and context

Why This Matters

Tools such as Claude Code have demonstrated that developers strongly prefer AI assistants that integrate into their existing editor rather than requiring a complete IDE switch.

Many developers would like to use Antigravity's capabilities while remaining inside VS Code. An official extension would:

  • Increase adoption
  • Reduce onboarding friction
  • Improve developer experience
  • Allow Antigravity to fit naturally into existing workflows
  • Make it easier for teams to evaluate and adopt the platform

Expected Outcome

A first-party VS Code extension that delivers the core Antigravity experience directly within VS Code while maintaining compatibility with the standalone Antigravity IDE for users who prefer it.

This would give developers the flexibility to choose their preferred environment while benefiting from the full power of Antigravity.
