agpair#

Overview#

Use this skill when your AI coding agent is the reviewer/controller and Antigravity is the executor.

agpair is the control surface for:

• preflight health checks
• task dispatch
• terminal-phase waiting
• evidence review
• semantic follow-up ( continue, approve, reject, retry)

It is not a second orchestrator and it is not the semantic decision-maker.

Triggering#

This skill is intended to trigger when the user asks their AI agent to:

• send or delegate work to Antigravity
• use agpair
• inspect doctor, daemon, task status, or task logs
• review an EVIDENCE_PACK
• approve, reject, continue, or retry a delegated task

For the strongest activation, the user can explicitly say use agpair or send this to Antigravity via agpair.

Workflow#

1. Preflight first#

Before any semantic action, check:

• agpair doctor --repo-path <absolute-repo-path>
• agpair daemon status

Do not continue if the target repo is unhealthy:

• desktop_reader_conflict=true
• repo_bridge_session_ready=false

2. Inspect task truth#

Use:

• agpair task status <TASK_ID>
• agpair task logs <TASK_ID> --limit 20

Do not choose continue, approve, reject, or retry until status and logs were read.

3. Blocking wait discipline#

If you enter a blocking wait path ( task start default --wait, task wait, or semantic commands with default --wait):

• treat the wait as an active operation until it exits
• keep consuming the same long-running command session, or keep checking:
  • agpair task active-waits
  • agpair task status <TASK_ID>
• do not tell the user the task is done while an active waiter still exists

ACK means accepted, not completed.

4. Guard against premature intervention#

If agpair task active-waits shows the task, or task status shows waiter_state=waiting:

• do not send another semantic action on the same task
• do not abandon/retry the task
• only use --force if the waiter is clearly orphaned

5. Pick one semantic action#

Choose exactly one:

• continue for same-session follow-up
• approve when evidence is good enough for finalization
• reject when work must continue in the same session
• retry only when the session is stale or not worth continuing

Required gates#

Before claiming completion:

• health was checked
• current task status was checked
• latest logs were checked
• if blocking wait was started, polling continued until terminal exit
• no same-task semantic action was sent while an active waiter existed

Anti-patterns#

• Do not start a blocking wait and then stop polling while the conversation is still alive.
• Do not treat ACK as proof of progress.
• Do not jump straight to continue because the user said “继续”.
• Do not hide desktop_reader_conflict or repo_bridge_session_ready=false.
• Do not invent commands or transport paths outside the real agpair CLI.
