Question 1

How is OrbiterX different from standard AI code generators?

Accepted Answer

Traditional AI coding tools stop after generating code suggestions. OrbiterX is an autonomous engineering agent that takes the task through the full engineering loop: it writes the code, executes local builds, runs test suites, investigates errors, applies self-healing patches, and provides deterministic verification before you ship.

Question 2

Does OrbiterX run locally on my machine?

Accepted Answer

Yes. OrbiterX is a native cross-platform application (macOS, Windows, and Linux) powered by a high-performance Rust core. Your codebase stays on your machine, running terminal commands, type checks, and tests in secure local sandboxes.

Question 3

What models and reasoning engines does OrbiterX support?

Accepted Answer

OrbiterX comes with built-in support for OrbiterX Flash (optimized for sub-second tool execution and AST mutations), Claude 3.7 Sonnet, GPT-4o, and custom local or cloud LLM endpoints via standard MCP (Model Context Protocol).

Question 4

Is OrbiterX free during the Public Beta?

Accepted Answer

Yes. During the public beta period, OrbiterX is completely free to download and use. New developer accounts receive 10,000 complimentary execution tokens to build, test, and verify real projects.
