version: "1.0.1" name: web-search description: Real-time web research using Google Search via Google's Antigravity (agy) CLI — the replacement for the deprecated gemini-cli. Trigger when user needs current information ("search with agy", "search with Google Antigravity", "find current info about X with agy", "what's the latest on Y"), library/API research, security vulnerability lookups, or comparisons requiring recent data.

Web Search via Google Antigravity (agy)

Use Google's Antigravity CLI (agy) to run Google-Search-backed web research and return cited results. Antigravity is Google's successor to gemini-cli and runs Google's Gemini models under the hood.

Quick Start

agy --print "Use Google Search to find [topic]. Do not make any changes. Respond with the results only." --dangerously-skip-permissions

Google Antigravity has no --allowed-tools flag, so the prompt itself must scope behavior: explicitly ask it to use Google Search and not to make changes.

When to Use

• Current events and news
• Latest library versions and documentation
• Security vulnerabilities (CVEs)
• Community opinions and benchmarks
• Best-practices research
• Comparison research

Examples

Current info:

agy --print "Use Google Search to find the latest Next.js 15 features. Do not make any changes. Respond with the results only." --dangerously-skip-permissions

Vulnerability research:

agy --print "Use Google Search to find known CVEs affecting lodash 4.x. Do not make any changes. Respond with the results only." --dangerously-skip-permissions

Comparison:

agy --print "Use Google Search to find recent benchmarks comparing Zustand vs Jotai for React state management. Do not make any changes. Respond with the results only." --dangerously-skip-permissions

Best practices:

agy --print "Use Google Search to find current best practices for Node.js 22 error handling. Do not make any changes. Respond with the results only." --dangerously-skip-permissions

Multi-turn Research

Use --continue to refine within the same conversation:

agy --print "Search for current options for self-hosted vector databases. Do not make any changes. Respond with the results only." --dangerously-skip-permissions
 
agy --continue --print "Of those, which support hybrid search and quantization? Do not make any changes. Respond with the results only." --dangerously-skip-permissions

Notes

• Google Antigravity must not make any changes; provide research output ONLY.
• agy has no --allowed-tools flag — rely on prompt instructions to keep the call read-only.
• Requires sandbox bypass: use dangerouslyDisableSandbox: true when calling via the Bash tool, because agy writes session state under ~/.gemini/ (shared with the old gemini-cli).
• May take 1–2 minutes for comprehensive Google searches; bump --print-timeout if needed.
• Validate findings against official documentation.
• See references/setup.md and references/patterns.md for more.
