# Antigravity IDE

Google IDE, VS Code fork, launched November 2025.

## Directories

| Path | Contents |
|---|---|
| `~/.antigravity-ide/` | **Antigravity IDE** data (extensions, config) |
| `~/.antigravity/` | **Antigravity.app** data (another Google product) |
| `~/Library/Application Support/Antigravity IDE` | IDE user data |

## Extensions

Extensions are stored in `~/.antigravity-ide/extensions/`, NOT in `~/.vscode/extensions/` or `~/.antigravity/extensions/`.

This breaks extensions that hardcode VS Code paths, like [[kickbacks-antigravity|Kickbacks.ai]].

## Processes

The extension host `process.execPath`:
```
/Applications/Antigravity IDE.app/Contents/Frameworks/Antigravity IDE Helper (Plugin).app/Contents/MacOS/Antigravity IDE Helper (Plugin)
```

The `workbench.action.restartExtensionHost` command **does not exist** in Antigravity — use `workbench.action.reloadWindow` or manual restart (`Cmd+Q`).

## Locations

| Item | Path |
|---|---|
| App bundle | `/Applications/Antigravity IDE.app/` |
| Main binary | `/Applications/Antigravity IDE.app/Contents/MacOS/Electron` |
| Extensions | `~/.antigravity-ide/extensions/` |
| User data | `~/Library/Application Support/Antigravity IDE` |
