Google is facing user backlash after abruptly pivoting its specialized Antigravity IDE into a general agentic tool, effectively resetting the product and breaking established workflows. The controversial update, which also sunsets the Gemini CLI, has been criticized for missing key features like Windows WSL support and causing significant local storage bloat. Although some users found the new standalone command-line interface works as a basic drop-in replacement, the transition highlights a frustrating pattern of abrupt product changes and rapid AI tool churn.
