You try to run Antigravity on macOS and the run ends with the message Agent execution terminated due to error immediately. It happens across all models and persists after basic resets and re authentication.
Antigravity on macOS shows Agent execution terminated due to error
Users report that Antigravity accepts a prompt but fails instantly during generation or hangs indefinitely with the message: Agent execution terminated due to error.
This occurs even with a valid Ultra subscription, stable internet, no MCP servers enabled, and after restarts and cache resets.
If you recently hit usage ceilings or billing issues you can also review common quota related failures here: quota errors in Antigravity.
Solution Overview
Aspect
Detail
Root Cause
Corrupted local profile or cached session token, combined with a recent app backend update, can cause the agent to abort immediately. Service side incidents and quota enforcement can present the same symptom.
Primary Fix
Fully quit Antigravity, remove the local profile cache and logs safely, relaunch, re sign in, then test a trivial prompt in a fresh workspace.

Fix Antigravity agent termination on mac
Step-by-Step Solution
Step 1. Fully quit the app and background processes
Quit Antigravity from the menu, then ensure no helper remains.
Step 2. Back up and remove the local Antigravity profile cache
The goal is to force a clean profile without losing a copy of current data.
Run the following. It safely backs up any found folders before removing them.
stamp=$(date +%Y%m%d-%H%M%S)
backup="$HOME/Desktop/Antigravity-backup-$stamp"
mkdir -p "$backup"
for d in \
"$HOME/Library/Application Support/Antigravity" \
"$HOME/Library/Caches/Antigravity" \
"$HOME/Library/Logs/Antigravity"
do
if [ -d "$d" ]; then
echo "Backing up $d to $backup/$(basename "$d")"
ditto -V "$d" "$backup/$(basename "$d")"
echo "Removing $d"
rm -rf "$d"
fi
done
echo "Backup completed at: $backup"
If none of these folders exist, nothing is deleted and you can proceed.
Step 3. Relaunch Antigravity and sign in again
Open Antigravity, perform a fresh sign in, and confirm the Ultra plan is detected on the account page.
Create a new empty project or workspace to isolate issues from previous state.
Step 4. Test with a trivial prompt
In the new workspace, ask a minimal question such as: “Return the string hello from Python”.
If code generation works now, your previous session profile was corrupted.
If you suspect your build is out of date or mismatched with the service, review version guidance here: version related fixes for Antigravity.
Step 5. Verify network and TLS from macOS
If either shows Enabled: Yes then temporarily disable in System Settings or remove the proxy and retry.
Step 7. Inspect recent app logs for immediate failures
Use macOS unified logging to spot crash or auth errors:
log show --style compact --predicate 'process == "Antigravity"' --last 30m
Open Antigravity and reproduce once while watching the log.
Step 8. Check service health and quota
If the clean profile still fails immediately, check for any regional or service incidents on the vendor status pages and verify your usage quota and billing status.
Move the app to Trash, empty Trash, then reinstall the latest release from the official download page.
After reinstall, repeat the clean profile steps above.
Reset authentication artifacts from Keychain
Open Keychain Access, search for entries related to Antigravity or Google sign in for the app, delete only those app specific items, then sign in again.
Re test a trivial prompt.
Switch macOS user profile
Create a new macOS user, install Antigravity there, sign in, and test a simple prompt. If it works, the issue is profile scoped to your original user.
Turn off security software and VPN temporarily
Some security agents or VPNs intercept TLS. Disable them temporarily and retry.
Try a different network such as a mobile hotspot to rule out office firewall policy.
Keep MCP servers disabled while testing to ensure a pure baseline.
If the error appears only for a specific project, export work, then create a new workspace and re test.
Watch the in app developer console if available under the Help or View menu, and capture any red stack traces to include with support tickets.
Collect a sysdiagnose when the failure occurs for deeper analysis if requested by support:
sudo sysdiagnose -f "$HOME/Desktop" -A
Best Practices
Keep Antigravity updated and avoid stale app versions after backend rollouts.
Maintain a periodic backup of the app profile so you can reset safely when corruption occurs.
Avoid system wide proxies and TLS interception for development machines when using AI tools.
Monitor usage and billing so quota enforcement does not surprise you during active sessions.
Final Thought
In most cases this error is caused by a corrupted local session or a transient service condition. A clean profile plus a quick network and quota check resolves the blocker fast, and the links included here help you verify version and account health end to end.
