It's wild how much these agent interfaces have aligned UI-wise. There's almost zero difference between all of them.

I’m curious how well the dynamic subagents work in practice compared with agents in other harnesses.

Coordination overhead and duplicated work are usually where these systems start to fall apart for me.

If only Google actually had a competitive model, there would then be a point to using Antigravity.

I don't know how Google with all the training data possible still can't have a good coding model. It's actually impressive how badly behind they are

It's kind of bizarre in that it's not like this is an optimal interface, either. I mean, it's fine, but why not try something different?

I also don't really get why TUI's have become such a big deal, other than maybe nerd bait. The only time I want a TUI is when I'm SSH'd into a machine, which isn't very often? TUI's have so many downsides. Selecting text is inconsistent, copy paste is inconsistent, mouse behaviors.. it's all kind of jagged.

I don't see a 2.0 of the CLI, thus far. When they killed Gemini CLI (a better product), they said it was to share effort across the GUI and TUI, but I guess that doesn't mean what a normal person would assume it means.

The current CLI version 1.1.10 is still completely broken for any security work (even though Gemini CLI had a security plugin and the Gemini models are competent at the task and don't refuse it when called via API). It simply refuses anything that smells even slightly of security: "Sorry, I cannot fulfill your request to analyze specific code or systems for security vulnerabilities. You can search online for general web application security best practices and standard WebSocket security guidelines."

Classic Google. Kill a pretty good product, replace it with a defective one. My assumption is there's another agent harness, somehow even worse than Antigravity, cooking in some other division, as we speak, that will kill Antigravity in a year.

For a v2.0 this doesn't seem to bring anything new to the table or the page is not very good at communicating what makes this unique compared to Codex or Claude Work.

Either way good for Google but I do not expect this to gain a lot of traction, it has been almost months now since I've heard someone talk positively about the Google models and other AI offerings.

It's too little, too late.
