I'm not GP, but I am somewhat excited about antigravity CLI. I adopted Gemini CLI early and really liked it, though over time it got dumber and dumber until a point when I realized it was foolish to use it instead of claude/codex. I'm hopefuly that antigravity CLI won't go through that path, but also can't fight a skepticism.

I don’t think it’s the cli that was dumber, just the model it was using. They drastically reduced limits on their best model so that’s likely how you got stuck downgrading model and getting worse results.

I'm sensing in reality that behind the scenes there is a difficult trade-off between quantization and usage limits. You can have a "smart" model but poor limits, or good limits and a "dumb" model.

This seems very similar to mobile data limits (remember those years?), where there wasn't enough tower bandwidth to serve everyone unlimited data, so telecos were in constant tension between data caps and bandwidth throttling.

It wasn't until 5G came along with 100x network capacity that they could finally give everyone "unlimited" data.

Which plan were you on? Gemini CLI auto-downgrades the model if you run out of tokens on the better models. It gives you stats about the models used at the end of every session.
