Summary

What changed

Google launched Antigravity 2.0 as a standalone desktop application for agent-optimized development, alongside a CLI and SDK, and surfaced it through broader public launch channels.

Why it matters

This is a stronger platform bet than an incremental coding-assistant update. Google is separating the agent control surface from the IDE and packaging orchestration, desktop execution, CLI workflows, and enterprise distribution into one product line.
