I’m experiencing a persistent authentication problem with Antigravity IDE 2.5.5 on Windows 11.
The unusual part is that Google authentication itself succeeds. The failure occurs afterward when Antigravity tries to complete the authentication/service initialization.
Reproduction
My normal sequence is:
Launch Antigravity IDE.
Antigravity automatically attempts authentication.
Authentication fails.
I click “To Login Click Here.”
A separate account login page opens.
I click Login.
I select my Google account.
Google authentication succeeds.
The Try Another Email page reports authentication successful.
I click Next.
Antigravity becomes logged in.
The account login page also shows that I am logged into the account.
So manual authentication works, but the initial automatic authentication does not.
Network investigation
I tested the Google endpoints independently from PowerShell.
For example:
is reachable over both IPv4 and IPv6.
A direct HTTPS request to:
https://cloudcode-pa.googleapis.com/
returns:
HTTP 404 Not Found
which confirms that the server is reachable.
I also tested:
/v1internal:loadCodeAssist
with a POST request. Without credentials it returns:
HTTP 401
UNAUTHENTICATED
CREDENTIALS_MISSING
This is expected, but importantly it demonstrates that the request is actually reaching Google’s Cloud Code service.
IPv6 connectivity is also successful.
Antigravity logs
The Antigravity logs show the following errors.
auth.log:
[Auth] Error confirming user for service:
request to https://cloudcode-pa.googleapis.com/v1internal:loadCodeAssist
failed, reason: socket hang up
Later:
[Auth] Error refreshing user status:
request to https://daily-cloudcode-pa.googleapis.com/v1internal:fetchAvailableModels
failed, reason: socket hang up
And after manually logging in:
[Auth] Error confirming user for service:
request to https://daily-cloudcode-pa.googleapis.com/v1internal:fetchUserInfo
failed, reason: socket hang up
cloudcode.log also repeatedly reports:
Client network socket disconnected before secure TLS connection was established
and:
socket hang up
There is also an OAuth profile request failure:
request to https://www.googleapis.com/oauth2/v2/userinfo
failed, reason: Client network socket disconnected before secure TLS connection was established
Additional testing
I checked Windows proxy settings:
WinHTTP proxy settings:
Direct access (no proxy server)
There are no proxy environment variables configured.
I also checked Windows Firewall rules. Nothing specifically blocks Antigravity or Google outbound traffic.
I tested the Google endpoints with both IPv4 and IPv6.
Interestingly, IPv4 connectivity to some Google addresses is inconsistent, while IPv6 works reliably. However, Antigravity’s own Node processes are being started with this resolver rule:
--host-resolver-rules=“MAP daily-cloudcode-pa.googleapis.com [2001:4860:4841:400::]”
One of the Antigravity Node services also has:
--dns-result-order=ipv4first
Despite this, the authentication requests still fail with socket/TLS errors.
Another interesting finding
The Antigravity Node processes are all running from:
C:\Users\Admin\AppData\Local\Programs\Antigravity IDE\Antigravity IDE.exe
The installed version is:
Antigravity IDE 2.5.5
The executable identifies itself as:
Company: Google LLC
Product: Antigravity IDE
Version: 2.5.5
Current workaround
The workaround is:
Try Another Email → Google account → successful authentication → Continue/Next
This eventually gets me into Antigravity and I can use the IDE.
However, I have to go through this manual authentication process because the normal automatic authentication fails.
Feedback submission issue
I also attempted to report this through Antigravity’s built-in feedback mechanism, but the Submit button does not work.
I also tried disabling “Attach Antigravity server logs”, but that did not resolve the submission problem.
Therefore I’m reporting the issue here.
Request
Could the Antigravity team investigate whether there is a problem with the automatic OAuth/token handoff or Cloud Code authentication initialization in Antigravity 2.5.5, particularly the transition from successful Google authentication to:
cloudcode-pa.googleapis.com
daily-cloudcode-pa.googleapis.com
www.googleapis.com/oauth2/v2/userinfo
The fact that:
Google authentication succeeds in the browser,
manual “Try Another Email” authentication succeeds,
the Cloud Code endpoints are reachable independently,
and Antigravity can ultimately become logged in,
makes me suspect that the problem is occurring inside Antigravity’s authentication/service initialization rather than being a simple inability to reach Google.
I can provide sanitized auth.log, cloudcode.log, main.log, and network-shared.log files if required.
