Sets up and maintains Orbit on a user's machine and repositories according to their needs. Use for installation, `orbit workspace init`, onboarding, provider/crew and MCP configuration, the Linux sandbox, the headless browser kit for UI checks, the scheduler (sweep clock, routines, auto-tasks), worktree GC, `orbit doctor`, upgrades, task publication and backup, remote access, the dashboard, or host and service log troubleshooting. Supports existing installations as well as first-time setup…

Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.

What the file says

# Orbit Setup

Help the user reach the workflow they want with the smallest necessary setup.
Inspect what is already working before proposing changes. Choose a path below;
loading this skill is not a request to install every optional component.

## Establish the target

Use the request and local evidence to establish the machine/OS, repository,
existing Orbit executable/version, and desired use: task tracking, agent-assisted
work, unattended delivery, or remote access. Ask only for choices that cannot
be inferred, such as the integration branch, provider, or which host owns a
shared workspace. Preserve the user's installation method and existing config.

| User need | Reference |
|---|---|
| First installation or another repository | [First run](references/first-run.md); for an agent lane, continue with [Provider setup](references/providers.md#provider-setup) |
| Add a Copilot, Antigravity or Muse crew; fix provider authentication | [Configuration — Provider setup](references/providers.md#provider-setup) |
