What happened?

My Feedback on Antigravity Migration: As a VPS user, I depend on the surgical efficiency of the current CLI. Early testing of Antigravity on my PC showed significantly higher token usage. (A very small data-mapping python script consumed a wee's worth of tokens)
Please ensure the new CLI maintains the 'surgical edit" ability (installing AntiGravity suite is not an option, and the CLI is staggeringly inefficient at token use, or my paid subscription comes with less usage than the competitor's 'free' tier, which makes me unhappy)

Writing a 'bug' was Gemini's suggestion on potential ways of informing Google that the planned path of Gemini CLI returement will apparently end my ability to use the product I'm paying for.

What did you expect to happen?

I did not expect a short script chat to consume a week's worth of CLI access. Gemini CLI has let me develop a customized CRUD app with web front end and I've never run out of access.
