Abstract & Overview

AntiGravity (Dev Timekeeper) is a developer productivity extension for VS Code and VSCodium tracking local coding sessions, workspace activity, and developer time logs without telemetry leaks or external cloud dependencies. Published on Open VSX Registry with over 1,300 downloads.
