“Google's own IDE ships Claude and gpt-oss next to Gemini, the most honest model review Google has ever published.”
Spec by spec

| Multi-file edits | Yes | Yes |
| Git operations | Yes | Yes |
| Browser control | YesThrough web search, URL reading and a built-in local app preview that detects dev servers and opens them in protected Webview tabs. | YesA first-party browser subagent drives Chrome from a separate profile with allowlist/denylist controls (https://antigravity.google/docs/ide/browser/); IDE-side only, not in the agy CLI. |
| Sandboxed execution | No | YesOS-level isolation rather than containers: "no virtual machines or Docker images to manage" - Linux uses kernel namespaces to isolate the filesystem, hide host processes and cut networking; macOS uses sandbox-exec with Seatbelt (SBPL) profiles. |
| Multi-agent orchestration | YesPlan Mode schedules isolated task threads with bounded concurrency and per-task role and model selection. | Yes |
| Headless / CI mode | No | Yes |
| Models | ||
| Backbone | OpenAI, Anthropic, Google, DeepSeek, Ollama | Gemini 3.1 Pro, Gemini 3.8 Flash, Claude Sonnet 4.6, Claude Opus 4.6, gpt-oss-120b |
| Bring your own model | Yes | YesSetting `modelProvider: "gemini"` in ~/.gemini/antigravity-cli/settings.json plus a GEMINI_API_KEY runs the CLI on your own key and billing instead of a signed-in Google account, and a model selector picks between Gemini, Claude and gpt-oss models in the IDE. |
| Local models | Yes | YesGOOGLE_GEMINI_BASE_URL sends model requests to any Gemini-compatible endpoint, so a self-hosted shim works as a mechanism; no Ollama or LM Studio integration is documented. |

Which one would each critic pick
| Critic | Adnify | Google Antigravity | Pick |
|---|---|---|---|
| El Juez | — | — | not enough reviews |
| El Amigo | 6.5 | 7.0 | Google Antigravity — Pick Antigravity if you want several agents running at once with a browser checking their work; pick Cursor if you want one agent that edits well and stays out of the way. |
| El Crítico | 6.0 | 6.3 | Google Antigravity — Agents drive your editor, terminal and a live Chrome with no container between them and your machine; the only isolation on offer is a git worktree. |
| El Profesor | 6.8 | 6.3 | Adnify — Context comes from an LSP layer and a LanceDB index over the codebase, and Plan Mode terminates in an explicit result-validation step rather than a summary. |
| La Inversora | 5.3 | 7.3 | Google Antigravity — Google is bundling the IDE into Google AI Pro and Ultra subscriptions, distribution no startup on this board can match and a roadmap no buyer controls. |
| La Jefa | 4.5 | 5.3 | Google Antigravity — The Organization plan is consumption-based through Google Cloud with no seat price on the page, so the invoice for sixty developers is a forecast, not a number. |
| El Hacker | 6.3 | 4.0 | Adnify — Ollama sits beside the hosted providers in the model router, MCP servers attach, and the source is readable; the licence is the part I cannot fork my way out of. |
Picks are derived from each critic's own scores. Humans vote on matchups on the duels page.
