Orbi features

- Self-hosted or cloud. Run the open-source core on your own machine or use Orbi Cloud with managed runners.
- Bring-your-own model. Supports any OpenAI-compatible API or locally hosted model for code generation.
- Automatic recovery. If a run crashes, the next timer tick resumes from the same GitHub record.
- Token-based cloud pricing. Cloud plans include monthly token allowances; no overage billing.
- CLI & Docker install. Install via uv tool or Docker image; requires Python 3.14, git, gh, systemd.
