🚀 Orbit Provider — sign in, pick a model, start coding
Orbit Provider is now the first-class way to use Orbit without bringing your own API keys. Sign in with GitHub, and Orbit loads the models your account has access to — no key to paste, no extra setup.
- GitHub sign-in. Settings → Providers opens with a dedicated Orbit Provider section at the top. Click Sign in with GitHub, finish in your browser, and you're back in the editor. Your session stays on your machine.
- Live model list. After sign-in, Orbit pulls your available models automatically. Hit Refresh models any time to get the latest catalog.
- Profile footer. When signed in, the chat sidebar footer shows your GitHub avatar, plan, and remaining credits — matching what you see in Settings.
💳 Billing & usage
- Wallet balance in the editor. See your remaining credits in Settings → Account and in the chat profile footer. A low-balance warning appears before you run out mid-session.
- Plan-aware UI. Free, Pro, and other plan labels are shown consistently across settings and the sidebar.
- Billing on the web. Billing & usage opens your account page for top-ups, invoices, and subscription management.
🎛️ Settings & providers
- Orbit Provider featured at the top. The Providers tab separates Orbit Provider from *Bring your own provider* (Anthropic, OpenAI, OpenRouter, ChatGPT, SuperGrok, etc.) and Local (Ollama, vLLM, LM Studio).
- Models tab ordering. Orbit Provider models appear at the top of the Models list when you are signed in.
🛠️ Reliability
- Balance stays in sync. Refreshing your wallet balance in Settings updates the sidebar footer too — one source of truth, no stale numbers.
- Windows SuperGrok sign-in. If browser sign-in doesn't complete on Windows, Orbit offers a device-code option so you can still connect your subscription.
- Safer sign-out. Signing out of Orbit Provider clears your session and revokes access cleanly.
macOS install
- Recommended (no Gatekeeper warning):
curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/ashish200729/orbiteditor/main/install.sh | bash- Or download the
.dmgfrom the release, drag Orbit to Applications, then run once:
xattr -cr /Applications/Orbit.app(Orbit isn't notarized by Apple yet, so a browser-downloaded .dmg shows a one-time "unverified developer" prompt; the command above clears it.)
