This article shares a project on GitHub called kdczyz/antigravity-chinese It is a community Chinese localization project for the new Antigravity IDE / Antigravity 2.0, primarily translating Antigravity's core web interface, Agent management interface, common menus, settings, and interactive copy into Simplified Chinese, making it easier for Chinese users to get started with Google's latest AI Agent programming tool.
Summary:If you just want to get started quickly, you can copy the “one-click Chinese localization command” below directly to Antigravity and let the Agent help you execute project installation, configure auto-start, and perform checks and fixes.

One-Click Chinese Localization Command
You can directly copy the content below to Antigravity to use, making one-click localization even easier:
Help me execute the localization for the project at https://github.com/kdczyz/antigravity-chinese, configure it to auto-start on boot to prevent background termination, and star the project.If the above dialogue still fails to localize after being fed to the Agent, you can continue by sending the following message for it to re-check:
Localization not taking effect, re-check and fixProject Background
The project description mentions that due to the author's Antigravity account being banned, they are temporarily unable to continue updating and optimizing the localization. Users and developers are welcome to submit Issues or PRs to improve the localization pack; contributors will be credited in the project description upon merging. Thanks for user feedback and developer maintenance.
Antigravity is a next-generation AI programming platform launched by Google, with the latest version emphasizing an Agent-first workflow, building the development experience around desktop client, CLI, SDK, and multi-agent task management. This project focuses on providing a lightweight, deactivatable, and easily restorable Chinese localization solution for the latest Antigravity IDE.
Important Notice
Important：This project is a community localization project, not an official Google project. The localization will try to adapt to the latest Antigravity IDE, but due to the high update frequency of Antigravity, some new interfaces or copy may temporarily remain in English. Issues or PRs to supplement entry terms are welcome.
Note：This tool adopts a lightweight injection scheme, dynamically injecting Chinese word lists into the window through the client's local debugging port, without cracking, decompiling, or modifying the client binary files. After installation, it can run automatically in the background and can also be deactivated or uninstalled with one click.
Core Features
- Adapted for the new Antigravity IDE:Chinese word list organized for usage scenarios of the new Antigravity / Antigravity 2.0 released after May 19th.
- Coverage of Agent-related interfaces:Focus on localizing interface text for Agent management, task status, model selection, settings pop-ups, common action buttons, and more.
- Safe and Non-invasive:No cracking or modification of Antigravity client binary files, reducing the risk of update damage.
- Lightweight and Intelligent:Driven by Node.js, working with the system's native daemon mechanisms, supporting macOS LaunchAgent and Windows Task Scheduler.
- Real-time interface synchronization:Dynamically monitor client window loading, covering core UI menus and text as much as possible.
- Green and easy to uninstall:Provide a fully automated one-click uninstall script, leaving no residue after cleanup.
Localization effect display
The project README shows the Chinese localization effects for the main interface, model selection, and settings menu. Since screenshots may change with project updates, it is recommended to refer to the latest screenshots in the GitHub repository.

Quick Start
Preparation
Before using the localization tool, please ensure the following dependencies are met:
- The latest Antigravity IDE client is installed.
- Node.js 22 or higher is installed.
node -vmacOS Installation and Usage
Open the terminal and navigate to the project's mac directory, then grant the script execution permission and run the installation:
cd mac\nchmod +x install.sh uninstall.sh bin/antigravity-zh-patch.js\n./install.shDisable or uninstall:
./uninstall.shWindows Installation and Usage
Run PowerShell as administrator, navigate to the project's win directory. On first run, you may allow script execution policy:
Set-ExecutionPolicy -Scope CurrentUser RemoteSignedRun the installation script:
cd win\n.install.ps1Disable or uninstall:

antigravity-chinese/Known Limitations and Notes
- Dynamic content is not forced to be translated:History conversation titles, raw model output text, and user input content will not be translated to preserve the original interaction content.
- Client update compatibility:When the Antigravity official client significantly upgrades its UI layout or introduces new copy, brief English residues may appear.
- System-level appearance limitation:The macOS top menu bar and system status bar are system-native components, outside the scope of the script's web-side injection processing.
- Unofficial project statement:This project is only for learning, communication, and localization experience optimization, and does not represent Google's official stance.
Issues and Feedback
If you encounter problems during use, or have suggestions for translation improvement, you can submit an Issue or PR on the GitHub repository, or provide feedback via the contact information in the project README.

Frequently asked questions
Is this project official from Google?
No. It is a community localization project and does not represent Google's official stance. It is recommended to read the repository README and script contents before use.
Why is it necessary to configure auto-start on boot?
The project works by injecting a Chinese vocabulary file into a local debugging port, which requires a background script to run continuously. macOS uses LaunchAgent, and Windows uses Task Scheduler, which can reduce the problem of localization failing after a restart.
What to do if the Chinese localization fails after updating Antigravity?
You can rerun the installation script, or send the phrase "Sinification has no effect, recheck and fix" to Antigravity Agent to have it recheck the script, dependencies, and auto-start status.
