What Antigravity CLI sends to your status line

On every refresh, Antigravity CLI (agy) starts the command in statusLine.command, writes one JSON object to its standard input, and shows what the command prints. This page lists the fields that object actually contains, taken from real payloads of agy 1.3.0 to 1.4.0 (the anonymized files in tests/fixtures/), with what each one means and which agy-powerline widget reads it.

• How the payload arrives
• Fields
• Quota buckets
• Fields you may read about but won't see
• Capture your own payload

How the payload arrives

• agy runs the command on each refresh and pipes the JSON on stdin. The command prints the bar on stdout, one line per row.
• The object is sent whole every time: there are no partial updates, so a status line keeps no state between refreshes unless it caches something itself.
• Fields come and go: a field for something that isn't happening (a sandbox, a conversation title, running subagents) is often missing rather than empty. A status line should treat every field as optional.
• On Windows agy runs the command through cmd /c; see Setting it up by hand for the exact command forms.

Fields

Seen in every payload unless the last column says otherwise. Example values are from the fixtures.

agy-powerline never prints, logs or saves email, session_id or conversation_id, and a payload dump replaces paths and branch names with placeholders (Security).

Quota buckets

quota holds one object per bucket. These are the bucket names seen so far:

The payload doesn't say how long a window is. agy-powerline takes 5 hours and 7 days from the bucket name, and from that and reset_in_seconds works out how far into the window you are: that point is the pace marker. The quota calculator does the same sum in your browser.

Fields you may read about but won't see

Some documentation mentions fields that have never appeared in a payload captured here:

• cost
• pending_input_count

vcs usually holds only type, without the branch or dirty state, which is why agy-powerline reads the branch, dirty state and ahead/behind counts from the .git folder itself.

If your payload has a field this page doesn't list, please open an issue with a capture (below), so the page and the bar can follow.

Capture your own payload

Set AGY_POWERLINE_DEBUG=1 before starting agy, and the next refresh saves the payload to ~/.agy-powerline/last-payload.json. The capture keeps only the fields the bar uses, never writes your email or session and conversation IDs, and replaces paths and the branch name with placeholders, so it is safe to attach to an issue. Details: Capturing the payload.

Replay it, or any of the fixtures, to see the bar it gives:

cat ~/.agy-powerline/last-payload.json | npx agy-powerline render
