Skills speak in actions (“dispatch a subagent”, “create a todo”, “read a file”). On the Antigravity CLI (agy) these resolve to the tools below.

Action skills request Antigravity CLI equivalent
Dispatch a subagent (Subagent (general-purpose): template) invoke_subagent with a built-in TypeName — self for full-capability work, research for read-only
Task tracking (“create a todo”, “mark complete”) a task artifact — write_to_file with IsArtifact: true and ArtifactType: "task" (see Task tracking). Not manage_task, which manages background processes.

Antigravity has no todo tool (manage_task manages background processes — list/kill/status/send_input — it is not a checklist). When a skill says to create a todo list or track tasks, maintain a task artifact: a markdown checklist saved with write_to_file (IsArtifact: true, ArtifactMetadata.ArtifactType: "task"), edited with replace_file_content / multi_replace_file_content as you go.

At the start of any multi-step task, create the task artifact listing every step of your plan. As you complete each step, edit the artifact to mark it done (- [x]). If the plan changes, update the checklist. Keep it current — it is your source of truth for what remains; once the conversation gets long, re-read it before starting each step.

# Antigravity CLI (`agy`) Tool Mapping
Skills speak in actions ("dispatch a subagent", "create a todo", "read a file"). On the Antigravity CLI (`agy`) these resolve to the tools below.
| Action skills request | Antigravity CLI equivalent |
|----------------------|----------------------|
| Dispatch a subagent (`Subagent (general-purpose):` template) | `invoke_subagent` with a built-in `TypeName` — `self` for full-capability work, `research` for read-only |
| Task tracking ("create a todo", "mark complete") | a **task artifact** — `write_to_file` with `IsArtifact: true` and `ArtifactType: "task"` (see [Task tracking](#task-tracking)). **Not** `manage_task`, which manages background processes. |
## Task tracking
Antigravity has **no todo tool** (`manage_task` manages background
processes — `list`/`kill`/`status`/`send_input` — it is *not* a checklist). When a
skill says to create a todo list or track tasks, maintain a **task artifact**: a
markdown checklist saved with `write_to_file` (`IsArtifact: true`,
`ArtifactMetadata.ArtifactType: "task"`), edited with `replace_file_content` /
`multi_replace_file_content` as you go.
At the start of any multi-step task, create the task artifact listing every step of
your plan. As you complete each step, edit the artifact to mark it done (`- [x]`).
If the plan changes, update the checklist. Keep it current — it is your source of
truth for what remains; once the conversation gets long, re-read it before starting
each step.
