1. What is Google Antigravity and the Language Server?

Google Antigravity is a next-generation AI coding environment built on top of modern code editor foundations, integrating Google's Gemini models directly into your development workflow for real-time coding assistance, debugging, and terminal automation.

Under the hood, the application relies on two core components:

• The Editor Frontend: The visible workspace where you write code, manage files, and interact with the UI.
• The Language Server (language_server): This is the computational engine and brain behind the scenes. Running quietly as a background process, the language server captures your prompts and code context, negotiates secure requests with Google's cloud AI infrastructure, and streams intelligence back into your editor.

2. Why Do Standard VPNs Still Trigger Location and License Errors?

Many developers assume that simply running a VPN or changing their IP address will provide access. However, users in restricted regions (such as Iran, Cuba, Syria, etc.) frequently encounter blocking hurdles:

• HTTP 400 (User location is not supported): Immediate connection drop based on regional telemetry.
• License Error #3501: Cloud-side RPC rejection preventing model access.
• HTTP 429 (Too Many Requests / Quota Exceeded): Rate-limiting locks caused by corrupted local state tokens.

Why does this happen?

The underlying language_server inspects much more than just your outbound IP. In the background, it evaluates local persistent token databases (Trust Tokens, DIPS), network persistent states, and background error/telemetry reporting. When these artifacts flag a restricted environment, access is severed even through clean proxy endpoints.

3. What Does Antigravity Cleaner Do?

Antigravity Cleaner is a standalone, lightweight, and 100% offline open-source system utility written in pure Go. Without touching your private codebase or chat histories, it automates the entire unlocking workflow:

1. Atomic 4-Target Auto-Fix: Automatically patches the language_server MultiGate auth check, the agy CLI binary, editor client files (main.js), and VS Code extension guards.
2. 7-Flag Zero-Telemetry Engine: Silences telemetry beacons and Git metadata leaks with --disable_telemetry=true while injecting enterprise authorization flags (--stubby_auth_mode=business_licensed_enterprise).
3. Smart No-TUN Proxy Injector: Discovers your local proxy client ports (10808, 2080, 7890) and routes the editor directly without burdening your operating system with root TUN mode.
4. Surgical Quota 429 Reset: Clears corrupted rate-limit cookies and tracking tokens across 16 local storage targets in 0.002s—leaving all user projects and chats intact.

4. Method 1: Using the Retro Desktop GUI (1-Click & Zero-Terminal)

For developers who prefer a visual interface without typing in terminal commands:

Step 1: Download the Standalone Binary

Navigate to the Official GitHub Releases Page and download the binary for your platform:

• Windows (10/11 64-bit): antigravity-cleaner-windows-amd64.exe
• macOS Apple Silicon (M1–M4): antigravity-cleaner-darwin-arm64
• macOS Intel: antigravity-cleaner-darwin-amd64
• Linux (x86_64): antigravity-cleaner-linux-amd64

Step 2: Launch the Patcher

Double-click the downloaded binary to open the Windows 95-inspired retro GUI.

Step 3: Execute the 3-Step Workflow

1. Click ① Auto-Fix: The engine dynamically detects the running processes via /proc or process tables, unlocks all 4 targets, and installs the Zero-Telemetry wrapper.
2. Ensure your local proxy client (v2ray, Xray, Clash, etc.) is running.
3. Click ② Launch IDE: Antigravity launches immediately with direct proxy injection, fully operational without location or license errors.
4. (Optional) Click ③ Shortcut to install a desktop launcher for one-click access in future sessions.

5. Method 2: Using the Command Line (CLI / TUI)

If you prefer working directly inside your terminal:

• Linux & macOS (1-Line Installer):

curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/tawroot/antigravity-cleaner/main/install.sh | bash

• Windows (PowerShell):

irm https://raw.githubusercontent.com/tawroot/antigravity-cleaner/main/install.ps1 | iex

Quick CLI Commands:

• Run Diagnostics Audit:

ag-cleaner doctor

• Apply All 4 Patches:

ag-cleaner patch all

• Launch IDE with Injected Proxy:

ag-cleaner launch

6. Troubleshooting & Frequently Asked Questions

• What should I do if I encounter an HTTP 429 Quota Exceeded error?
  
  Run ag-cleaner clean in your terminal (or select the clean option in the GUI). This surgically removes the 16 corrupted rate-limit database files without losing any of your chats or project configs.

• Will running Auto-Fix terminate my ongoing work or active chats?
  
  No. Antigravity Cleaner v5.3 includes a Session Immunity Shield that protects parent terminal PIDs and current GUI sessions from unexpected termination during patching.
