Homebrew Installation (macOS & Linux)

If you have Homebrew installed, you can use it to install and manage Antigravity Manager:
1

Add the Tap

Subscribe to the Antigravity Manager repository:
brew tap lbjlaq/antigravity-manager https://github.com/lbjlaq/Antigravity-Manager
2

Install the Application

Install Antigravity Tools as a cask:
brew install --cask antigravity-tools
3

Fix Quarantine (macOS Only)

If macOS shows “app is damaged”, add the --no-quarantine flag:
brew install --cask --no-quarantine antigravity-tools

Arch Linux Specific Installation

Arch Linux users have two additional options:

Docker Deployment (NAS/Server)

Docker deployment is recommended for headless servers, NAS devices, or containerized environments. The Docker image includes native v4.0.3 Headless architecture with built-in web UI.

Quick Start with Docker Run

docker run -d --name antigravity-manager \
  -p 8045:8045 \
  -e API_KEY=sk-your-api-key \
  -e WEB_PASSWORD=your-login-password \
  -e ABV_MAX_BODY_SIZE=104857600 \
  -v ~/.antigravity_tools:/root/.antigravity_tools \
  lbjlaq/antigravity-manager:latest
API_KEY
string
required
Required. Used for all AI request authentication. Set this to any secure string (e.g., sk-antigravity).
WEB_PASSWORD
string
Optional. Used for Web UI login. If not set, defaults to API_KEY value.
ABV_MAX_BODY_SIZE
integer
default:"104857600"
Maximum request body size in bytes (default: 100MB). Increase for large multimodal requests.

Authentication Scenarios

  • Web Login: Use API_KEY to access the dashboard
  • API Calls: Use API_KEY for AI request authentication
This is the simplest setup for single-user environments.
Environment Variable Priority:
  1. Environment variables (WEB_PASSWORD) - Highest priority, always used if set
  2. Configuration file (gui_config.jsonadmin_password) - Used for persistent storage
  3. Fallback - Uses API_KEY if neither is set

Docker Compose Deployment

For more complex setups, use Docker Compose:
1

Navigate to Docker Directory

cd docker
2

Start the Service

docker compose up -d
3

Access the Application

  • Admin Console: http://localhost:8045
  • API Base URL: http://localhost:8045/v1

System Requirements for Docker

Memory

Recommended: 1GBMinimum: 256MB

Persistence

Mount /root/.antigravity_tools to preserve account data and configuration

Architecture

Supports both x86_64 and ARM64 platforms

Retrieving Forgotten Credentials

docker logs antigravity-manager

Troubleshooting

This is caused by macOS Gatekeeper security for non-App Store applications.Solution 1 - Command Line (Recommended):
sudo xattr -rd com.apple.quarantine "/Applications/Antigravity Tools.app"
Solution 2 - Homebrew Installation:
brew install --cask --no-quarantine antigravity-tools
Missing FUSE:
# Ubuntu/Debian
sudo apt install libfuse2

# Fedora
sudo dnf install fuse-libs
