Adds docker/Dockerfile.antigravity. One file, no code changes.

Staged on the pradeepvrd/devops-bench integration fork as pradeepvrd#27, where the sandbox seam it serves is already merged. The upstream PRs for that seam follow separately; this image is inert until they land, but it is independently reviewable and the pin is worth freezing now.

The sandbox seam documents an image contract — ship docker/Dockerfile.<name> carrying the shared tool floor with the CLI version-pinned and installed under the exact binary name the harness invokes — but no antigravity image existed, so agy had no sandboxed arm at all.

Deliberately not stacked on the harness-wiring PR (staged as pradeepvrd#14): it adds no Python and changes no behaviour, so it can land independently. Dockerfile.openclaw belongs to the openclaw image PR (staged as pradeepvrd#19) and is untouched here.

Why the upstream installer is not piped to a shell

curl -fsSL https://antigravity.google/cli/install.sh | bash is the documented install path, and it is the wrong thing for an image:

  • It resolves whatever the release manifest calls latest, which defeats pinning. A CLI bump would silently invalidate the A/B baseline a run was scored against.
  • It installs into $HOME and rewrites shell profiles, both meaningless in an image whose HOME is container-owned and replaced per run.

What it does that is worth keeping is the sha512 check, so that is done inline against the pinned artifact: a tampered or truncated payload fails the build rather than quietly scoring a run.

Release paths are inconsistent between arches upstream (linux-x64/cli_linux_x64.tar.gz vs linux-arm/cli_linux_arm64.tar.gz), hence an explicit mapping rather than a substitution. The archive member is named antigravity; it is installed as agy, which is the name the harness spells.

node:24-slim (current LTS) rather than plain debian: agy is a Go binary and needs no runtime, but MCP server bindings are conventionally launched with npx, and a task declaring one would otherwise fail inside the boundary.

Live validation

On the bastion, against the sandbox executor's real invocation — --user <uid>:<gid>, HOME on the workspace mount, and GCE_METADATA_HOST pointed at a dead port.

stage result
DOCKER-USER REJECT to 169.254.169.254 present, rule 3
metadata from inside a container http=000
control — token removed from the mount fails, Authentication required
E2E — OAuth token on the workspace mount real completion
tool floor agy kubectl helm jq git rg node npx all resolve
npx under the mapped uid works
image size 892 MB

The control and the E2E differ only in whether the token is on the mount, so the pass exercises the credential path rather than an ambient one.

Two image requirements that were suspected and are not real, recorded so they are not re-litigated: the mapped uid needs no /etc/passwd entry (getent passwd returns NONE and agy does not care), and the node-slim base is missing no shared library agy needs.

Version bump (2026-09-24)

Pins moved to the latest releases: agy 1.2.10 (from 1.2.0), kubectl v1.35.9, helm v3.22.0, and node:24-slim (each digest- or checksum-pinned).

  • kubectl 1.35 is within one minor of the new kind node default (1.35) and of GKE's channel defaults (1.35/1.36).
  • helm stays on v3; v4 is a major change and needs its own PR.

Re-validated on the bastion. The image builds (SHA checks pass), and the tools report v1.35.9 / v3.22.0+g144ca65 / v24.21.0 / 1.2.10. A sandboxed agy run of opa-remediation, gemini-3.1-pro-low through #233's wiring: exit 0, 24 steps, 0 errors, OutcomeScore 0.816, cheating check clean, no leftover containers.

Not in this PR

Neither blocks this image; both are needed before an agy arm scores.

The sandbox seam documents an image contract -- ship
docker/Dockerfile.<name> carrying the shared tool floor with the CLI
version-pinned under the exact binary name the harness invokes -- but no
antigravity image existed, so `agy` had no sandboxed arm at all.

Pinned to agy 1.2.0 rather than piped from the upstream installer. That
script resolves whatever the release manifest calls *latest*, which would
let a CLI bump silently invalidate the A/B baseline a run was scored
against; it also installs into $HOME and rewrites shell profiles, both
meaningless in an image whose HOME is container-owned and replaced per
run. The sha512 check is the part worth keeping, so it is done inline: a
tampered or truncated payload fails the build instead of quietly scoring
a run.

The archive member is named `antigravity` and is installed as `agy`,
because that is the name the harness spells.

Validated on the bastion against the executor's real invocation --
--user <uid>:<gid> with HOME on the workspace mount, and the metadata
endpoint unreachable. agy authenticated from the OAuth token that
arrived on the workspace mount and returned a real completion; the same
image with only that token removed failed with `Authentication
required`, so the pass is the credential path and not an ambient one.
No /etc/passwd entry is needed for the mapped uid, and npx works with
HOME under the workspace.

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

The pull request adds docker/Dockerfile.antigravity. It builds a digest-pinned node:22-slim sandbox image with required utilities, pinned Kubernetes tools, the agy CLI, architecture-specific checksum verification, and /workspace as the working directory.

Changes

Antigravity sandbox image

Layer / File(s) Summary
Image foundation and build dependencies
docker/Dockerfile.antigravity
The Dockerfile uses a digest-pinned node:22-slim base, documents runtime-mounted credentials and workspace data, installs required utilities with backported git, and sets /workspace as the working directory.
Pinned Kubernetes tools
docker/Dockerfile.antigravity
The image installs pinned versions of kubectl and Helm for the detected architecture. It verifies each download with an architecture-specific SHA256 checksum and rejects unsupported architectures.
Verified agy installation
docker/Dockerfile.antigravity
The build selects an architecture-specific agy artifact, verifies its SHA512 checksum, extracts and installs it at /usr/local/bin/agy, and runs agy --version.

Hi @isadominguez314. Thanks for your PR.

I'm waiting for a kubernetes-sigs member to verify that this patch is reasonable to test. If it is, they should reply with /ok-to-test on its own line. Until that is done, I will not automatically test new commits in this PR, but the usual testing commands by org members will still work.

Tip

We noticed you've done this a few times! Consider joining the org to skip this step and gain /lgtm and other bot rights. We recommend asking approvers on your previous PRs to sponsor you.

Once the patch is verified, the new status will be reflected by the ok-to-test label.

I understand the commands that are listed here.

Comment thread docker/Dockerfile.antigravity Outdated
Review follow-up on the sandbox-image PR. The agy tarball was already
sha512-verified while kubectl and helm were installed from a bare HTTPS
fetch -- the rationale three lines down (a tampered or truncated payload
should fail the build rather than silently score a run) applies to the
cluster tools just as much as to the agent, so give them the same
treatment: per-arch SHA-256 pins as build args, verified before install,
with helm downloaded to a file first so there is a payload to check.
Sums were verified against the published artifacts for both arches, not
just copied from the vendors' .sha256 endpoints.

Pin the node base by its multi-arch manifest-list digest (covers amd64
and arm64) so the base layers cannot drift under an unchanged
Dockerfile, and reword the pinning comment to promise what the file
actually delivers: the arm-defining layers -- base, cluster tools, agent
CLI -- are pinned; the apt support packages deliberately track Debian
security updates. A scored baseline is identified by the digest of the
built image it ran, not by a byte-identical rebuild, so Debian snapshot
mirrors would add a fragile moving part without strengthening the
guarantee that matters.

we should probably update the kubectl and helm versions right? Unless theres a reason why we are using these specific versions.

Also I think there are a lot of overly verbose comments that make this really hard to read.

kubectl v1.31.0 is past end of support, and since this pin becomes the baseline runs are scored against, we might want to bump it before freezing. Same goes for helm v3.16.3 on L44.

maybe consult Pradeep or Simran on what version we should use

I'll message Pradeep and Simran. I've left them like this for now because kubectl only supports one minor version of skew against the API server. The kind-based tasks all pin kindest/node:v1.30.0, so today's v1.31 is within range for them, and the current stable (v1.37.1) would be six minors out. GKE clusters use the release-channel default, which is much newer. No single kubectl minor covers both right now, so the pin should follow whatever version we standardize the task clusters on.
For helm, the current v3 line is v3.22.0. v4.3.0 is also out, but it has breaking changes, so I'd stay on v3 unless a task needs v4.

bookworm-backports carries no git package, so `-t bookworm-backports git`
installed stock bookworm git 2.39.5 anyway (no reftable support). Install
git from the main suite and drop the reftable claim. Download kubectl to
/tmp like helm and agy instead of into /. Cut the comments down to what is
true and not already in the PR description; agy is dynamically linked
against glibc, not static.
