Google trashed the Gemini CLI client and replaced it with agy (antigravity), which is written in go and is much nicer.

Interesting you say that. Every user I speak to says antigravity cli is missing lots of features and Gemini cli was working quite well. Same for me.

It's not as feature rich, but has also not crashed once for me, unlike gemini cli, which was a flickery, unstable mess.

So they did.

I get the complaints in that thread but I still think it is hilarious. That repo is a gong show to random shit and perhaps one of the best worst examples of "opensource" LLM development.

It will also just sit there "thinking" for ages, if whatever you are doing requires an input (like sudo)

Sometimes you have to tab across and give it a PW, but it seemingly is incapable of parsing that, and just asking.

Kiro, what we use at work, on the other hand will just prompt you. (And doesn't like taking credentials directly)
