Antigravity vs Claude Code — FAQ

Should I pick Antigravity or Claude Code?

It depends on where you work. Antigravity is agent-based development environment, while Claude Code is anthropic's official command-line coding agent. Many developers use both and share skills across them via BuySkills — so the choice is less binary than it used to be.

Can I use the same plugins in Antigravity and Claude Code?

Yes. BuySkills is designed for cross-agent portability. Install a skill once with the BuySkills CLI and it becomes available in both Antigravity and Claude Code — and every other supported agent — without a second purchase or install.

How is installing BuySkills skills different between Antigravity and Claude Code?

It isn't, from your side. You run `npx buyskills install <skill>`, and the CLI writes the skill to the directory each agent reads from. Antigravity and Claude Code pick up the skill without any extra config.

How do I add skills to Antigravity?

Install BuySkills CLI and run `npx buyskills install <skill>`. The CLI detects Antigravity and writes skills into the directory its agent reads at startup. Restart the agent loop (not the whole app) to pick up new skills.

Where does Claude Code store installed skills?

Claude Code reads skills from the `.claude/skills/` directory (either project-local or `~/.claude/skills/` global). BuySkills installs into the right location automatically based on whether you choose a global or per-project install.

Still deciding?

Install BuySkills CLI once and the skills you discover today work in whichever agent you pick tomorrow.
