What happened to Gemini CLI
At I/O on May 19, 2026, Google said it would move its developer tools under the Antigravity name. On June 18, 2026, Gemini CLI stopped working for free, Google AI Pro, and Google AI Ultra users. Antigravity CLI took its place.
Gemini CLI still works with Gemini Code Assist Standard or Enterprise, and with a paid Gemini API key.
What is Antigravity CLI
Antigravity CLI is Google's terminal coding agent. You run it with the agy command. It is written in Go and, unlike Gemini CLI, it is closed source. Agent skills, hooks and subagents carry over, Gemini CLI extensions are now Antigravity plugins, and it runs on the same agent harness as the Antigravity desktop app.
Manim with Antigravity CLI
Ask agy for a Manim scene and you get a Python file. Running that file is where people get stuck.
Manim needs Python, Cairo, Pango, ffmpeg and LaTeX installed and working together. When one of them is off, the render errors are hard to read.
Why Animo
Animo is a desktop app with the Manim engine built in, so there is nothing to install. Paste the code Antigravity wrote, or describe the animation to Animo and let it write the code.
Full Manim support
Animo runs ManimCE, the community edition, so scripts that use the standard Manim API render as expected.
No environment to manage
Python, LaTeX, ffmpeg and Cairo come inside the app. Install Animo and render your first scene.
Live code editor
Paste the output into the editor, change what you want, and re-render with one click.
AI built in
Animo can also write the animation itself. Describe what you want in plain language and it generates and renders the scene.
How It Works
- 1Ask Antigravity CLI for a Manim script, or describe the animation directly in Animo.
- 2Open Animo on macOS or Windows and paste the code into the editor.
- 3Render it and preview the animation in Animo.
- 4Export as MP4 for YouTube, slides or a course.
Using the Gemini API or an enterprise Gemini setup? The Gemini + Manim guide is still up.
Antigravity writes the code. Animo renders it.
You do not need to set up Manim or a Python environment. Download Animo and try it.
