Question 1

Will this actually beat ripgrep, or is it an expensive way to search?

Accepted Answer

The claim is about questions a regex cannot express, not raw speed. The README argues that literal keyword grep drags 25,000 to 40,000 tokens of irrelevant files into context while this ingests about a 150-token, 15-line preview. No latency comparison against rg and no recall numbers are published.

Question 2

How accurate is the file picker on a real repository?

Accepted Answer

Not documented. There are no precision, recall, or top-k figures anywhere in the README; typesafe_find_code simply returns the selected file plus a 15-line preview with line numbers and confidence scores. The only quantitative claim is the roughly $0.00004 cost per call.

Question 3

Does the diff audit catch anything, or is it decoration?

Accepted Answer

Unmeasured. typesafe_audit_diff is described as evaluating task intent against the diff and flagging unexpected global state mutations, removed try/catch and null guards, breaking contract changes, and leftover console.log or print statements. No detection rate and no false-positive rate are given.

Question 4

Will it work in Cursor or Claude Code, or only in Antigravity?

Accepted Answer

Only Antigravity setup is documented. The overview names Antigravity IDE, Cursor, and Claude Code as targets, but every instruction path is Antigravity's: mcp_config.json under the .gemini config directory, with the skill and rules copied into its skills and rules folders. Configuration steps for Cursor or Claude Code are absent.

Question 5

What are the prerequisites and dependencies?

Accepted Answer

Python 3.10 or newer and a TypeSafe API key from console.typesafe.ai. Installation is pip install -r requirements.txt, then copy .env.example to .env and set TYPESAFE_API_KEY. No license file ships with the repository, so the reuse terms are not stated.

Question 6

How do I register it and stop it prompting on every call?

Accepted Answer

Add the server to your global MCP config at ~/.gemini/config/mcp_config.json on macOS or Linux, or the equivalent under your user profile on Windows, using forward slashes in the path. List typesafe_find_code and typesafe_audit_diff in the alwaysAllow array so they run without manual approval prompts.

Question 7

Does it install per project or once for everything?

Accepted Answer

Once, globally. The bundled skill and rules are copied into ~/.gemini/config/skills and ~/.gemini/config/rules so TypeSafe Code Guard protects all projects opened in Antigravity IDE without copying files into each repository. The command and MCP registration are the same global install.
