What is Orbi?

Orbi is an open-source (AGPL-3.0) AI coding agent driven by GitHub issues. Label an issue ai-ready and it writes the change in an isolated git worktree, opens a pull request, has a separate review session check it against the issue's acceptance criteria, merges only the reviewed head, and cuts a tagged release. Ops issues (deploys, investigations) run the same way, with every command and its output posted on the issue. Self-hosted or as Orbi Cloud.
