Install the ToolUniverse Plugin for Google Antigravity (AGY)

One-step install on Google Antigravity (AGY / Antigravity IDE / Antigravity 2.0): an MCP server exposing 1000+ scientific tools plus 120+ research skills — all auto-configured.

Prerequisites (check once)

uv --version   # provides `uvx`; if missing: curl -LsSf https://astral.sh/uv/install.sh | sh
agy --version  # Antigravity CLI; if missing: https://antigravity.google

Install

In Antigravity, plugins can be installed using the agy CLI:

Option 1: Direct path / imported plugin install (recommended)

# If installed via Claude Code / Codex marketplace cache or cloned repo:
agy plugin install /path/to/ToolUniverse/plugin

Option 2: Clone + install

git clone https://github.com/mims-harvard/ToolUniverse.git
cd ToolUniverse
agy plugin install ./plugin

Restart Antigravity. The MCP server auto-starts via uvx tooluniverse on first use (~30 s cold start while the package downloads, instant after).

Verify it worked

agy plugin list

Expect output showing tooluniverse under imports:

{
  "imports": [
    {
      "name": "tooluniverse",
      "source": "claude-code",
      "components": [
        "skills",
        "agents",
        "mcpServers",
        "hooks",
        "commands"
      ]
    }
  ]
}

Inside Antigravity, just ask naturally:

What are the top mutated genes in breast cancer?
Research the drug metformin.

The research skills auto-activate on matching questions, and the MCP tools are discovered and run via find_tools → execute_tool — no command prefix needed.

What you get

Component	What it does	How it's used
MCP server	1000+ tools via `find_tools`, `get_tool_info`, `execute_tool`	Auto-loaded; no action needed
120+ skills	Structured research workflows (drug discovery, variant interpretation, pharmacovigilance, phylogenetics, statistical modeling, etc.)	Auto-activate on matching questions
Research agent	Autonomous multi-database research subagent	Auto-routed on complex research tasks

API keys (optional, but recommended)

Most tools work without keys. For higher rate limits or gated databases, set the keys you care about in ~/.gemini/config/plugins/tooluniverse/mcp_config.json or pass them in environment variables:

export NCBI_API_KEY="your_key"
export ONCOKB_API_TOKEN="your_token"
export SEMANTIC_SCHOLAR_API_KEY="your_key"

Update

uv cache clean tooluniverse

Restart Antigravity.

Troubleshooting

Symptom	Fix
`uvx: command not found`	Install `uv` (see Prerequisites), reopen terminal.
MCP server won't start	Run `uv cache clean tooluniverse` or `uvx --refresh tooluniverse --help` in terminal.
Plugin installs but tools missing	Restart Antigravity CLI/IDE. First launch downloads the package (~30 s).
`requires-python >= 3.10`	`uv python install 3.12`
