Antigravity Pulse

100% local and private. An 85 KB status bar extension that monitors your Antigravity AI model quota at a glance, without external network calls, OAuth flows, or background processes.

Why Antigravity Pulse?

Antigravity already shows your quota in the settings panel but it requires 3 clicks to access. This extension puts it in your status bar so you always see it without navigating anywhere. Per pool, per model, one glance.

Privacy first

Everything runs 100% on your machine. The extension reads quota data from the Antigravity process already running locally. No requests ever leave localhost.

• No internet requests, every call stays on 127.0.0.1
• No Google authentication, no OAuth, no tokens stored, no login required
• No data sent to any server, your usage patterns stay private
• No special permissions, no filesystem access, no telemetry

Lightweight

The entire extension is 85 KB unpacked. No bundled webviews, no CSS frameworks, no localization files. Three TypeScript files compiled to plain JavaScript.

• Activates in milliseconds
• Smart polling: refreshes every 30 seconds while Antigravity is focused, pauses entirely when you switch away
• Zero dependencies beyond the VS Code API

Clear at a glance

Each model pool gets a color-coded health indicator directly in the status bar:

Icon	Status	Remaining
🟢	Healthy	> 50%
🟡	Low	20% – 50%
🔴	Critical	< 20%

Per-pool quota tracking

Antigravity groups AI models into independent quota pools, each resetting every ~5 hours:

Label	Pool	Includes
Gemini	Gemini 3.x	Gemini 3.1 Pro (High), Gemini 3.1 Pro (Low)
Claude	Claude / GPT	Claude Sonnet 4.6, Claude Opus 4.6, GPT-OSS 120B
Gem Flash	Gemini 3 Flash

Each pool's quota is tracked independently. Exhausting Claude/GPT does not affect your Gemini quota.

Hover tooltip

Hover over the status bar item for a detailed, formatted breakdown:

• Per-pool remaining percentage with visual progress bars
• Time until reset for each pool
• Individual model quotas when models within a pool differ
• Clean Markdown formatting, no popup windows

How it works

1. Process detection scans for the Antigravity language_server process
2. Token extraction reads the CSRF token from the process arguments
3. Port discovery finds the correct local API port
4. Local API call POST https://127.0.0.1:{port}/.../GetUserStatus, strictly local
5. Display groups models by pool, updates the status bar every 30 seconds
