agy-delegate

Delegate to agy

Run the Antigravity CLI (agy) directly via Bash to offload token-heavy, low-reasoning work to a low-cost LLM. You construct the prompt, agy does the bulk reading (files or web), and only its final digest enters your context.

Pick the model

Run agy models first, then choose the best Gemini model: newest version number at the highest reasoning tier (e.g. prefer a newer-generation Flash at "(High)" over older Pro models). Stick to Gemini entries — non-Gemini models in the list defeat the cost-saving purpose.

Build the command

agy -p "<prompt>" \
  --model "<best Gemini model>" \
  --dangerously-skip-permissions \
  --print-timeout 15m

• •-p runs non-interactively and prints the response.
• •--dangerously-skip-permissions is required in print mode, otherwise tool permission prompts hang the run; for analysis-only tasks this is safe, and you can add --sandbox for extra restriction.
• •--add-dir <path> (repeatable) brings extra directories into the workspace when the task spans multiple locations.
• •Raise --print-timeout for large jobs (default 5m).
• •agy can search the web on its own — no extra flag needed; just ask for it in the prompt.

Write a self-contained prompt

agy sees only what you pass it. Include in the prompt:

1. The working directory or target paths, and what to read or search.
2. The exact question or extraction task.
3. The expected output format (e.g. "a markdown table with columns X, Y" or "a flat list, one item per line") — you consume this output directly, so make it easy to parse.
4. An explicit instruction to be exhaustive when the task is an inventory or sweep — low-cost models stop early unless told not to.

Independent jobs run in parallel

When delegating several unrelated sweeps, launch each agy command as a background Bash task instead of running them sequentially.

Treat results accordingly

The output comes from a low-cost model: reliable for enumeration and digestion, weaker on judgment. Spot-check any claim you are about to act on (e.g. verify one or two listed locations exist) before building further work on top of it.
