Orbit is a local-first runtime for coding agents that adds a durable task queue, sandboxed worktrees, file locks, and a gated delivery pipeline to existing agent CLIs. It stands out for its focus on governance, auditability, and safe parallel execution without requiring API keys or cloud dependency, making agent-driven development more traceable and controllable.

Target audience: backend devs, devops, engineering teams using AI coding agents
