Orbit 0.2.0 — Early access

Your Macs and AI coding accounts in one native macOS control room.

Included

  • SwiftUI fleet dashboard and menu bar companion, with separate Mac, Tailscale, and T3 health.
  • Claude Code, Codex, Grok Build, and Cursor session visibility and explicit model access checks.
  • A connection center for official sign-in on the selected Mac, temporary challenges, cancellation, and post-login verification.
  • Guided reconnection with retry, skip, stop, and verification before advancing.
  • Trusted SSH agents, private inventory and check cache, sanitized orbitctl status, and target-local Codex cache recovery.
  • Privacy mode for device names, addresses, account details, and sign-in instructions.

Install

Download Orbit-v0.2.0-macos-arm64.zip, verify it against SHA256SUMS, extract it, and move Orbit.app to Applications. Requires Apple Silicon, macOS 14+, Node.js 22.13+, and the official provider CLIs on each target. The Cursor SDK is bundled on the controller; remote targets need a compatible runtime.

This binary is ad hoc signed and not notarized. Review the source and build locally, or use the normal macOS app approval flow if you trust the release. Keep system protections enabled.

Follow the user guide to add a trusted SSH Mac and start official sign-in. Update existing remote agents from this build before resuming authentication.

Validation and current limits

Local validation includes 29 core/agent tests, release build, Swift formatting, bundle-signature checks, and native visual review. Hosted macOS CI and GitGuardian also passed on the public feature branch. Live integration recorded four reachable Macs and 15 of 16 successful provider checks; the remaining account required fresh sign-in. This is recorded evidence, not a guarantee of current account access.

Completed provider-browser approval, MFA recovery, and automatic queue advancement need broader end-to-end coverage. Monitoring requires an awake controller with Orbit running. No independent 24/7 service, billing management, paid renewal, notarization, or automatic service recovery is included.

See troubleshooting, architecture, and roadmap.
