open devcontainer inside SSH is broken too.

Add docker path to the settings, so I could use docker-compatible cli like podman

Antigravity is able to create the devcontainer, but is unable to connect to it. The lack of dev container support is what is avoiding the company I work for to adopt Antigravity.

Thank you for sharing your feedback. We recognize the importance of providing robust support and comprehensive documentation for Dev Containers in Antigravity. I have shared your request with the relevant internal teams for further consideration. We appreciate your patience as we work to enhance the Antigravity experience.

Another vote to please support Dev Containers natively in Antigravity! When I import my workspace (including .devcontainer/devcontainer.json) and settings from VS Code, what works perfectly in VS Code fails to load the container in AGY. Thx.

Yes, with current AI capabilities and access to the prety much all terminal tools I moved all my projects into devcontainers to have at least some isolation between my PC and project and AI.
I was planning to try AGY, but without standard devcontainer support, it is just a big NO. Please add proper support for devcotainers, and it should work in the same/standard way as in VSCode or in Cursor, so we wouldn’t have to adjust devontainer content per specific IDE, it should be standard and generic.

Same here - using wsl - had expected I could open my project with a dev container setup in agy and have it work out of the box the same way it works in VS code and Cursor. No clue how to get it to work. It does not detect the devcontainer or offer to open it with a pop up message, like the other IDE’s. Please prioritize this.

Same here! This is very important for us.

Why is this feature still not available. This is the must have feature for developers for reproducible environments. Currently we still need to bootstrap the container using VSCode command “Dev containers: Clone Repository in Named Container Volume…” before attaching it to antigravity for the container to run properly.

This would be huge for teams with complex build environments. Right now I maintain separate dockerfiles for dev and CI - devcontainer support would unify those. The VS Code implementation shows it’s doable, just needs the right integration points.
