What Orbis needs to run smoothly
Orbis is a single Electron app plus a small Python engine that speaks to your browser. Nothing here is exotic — if you have a modern dev laptop, you're good. Heavier requirements (RAM, disk) only kick in if you run large suites.
- CPU
Any 64-bit x86 or Apple Silicon chip from the last 6 years.
- Storage
500 MB for the app; runs/screenshots grow over time — budget 1-5 GB if you run nightly suites.
- Browser
A Chromium-family browser (Chrome / Brave / Edge / Chromium). Orbis drives it through CDP.
- Network
Only outbound to your LLM provider. Update-check pings orbis.darcode.dev once on launch.
- LLM key
BYO. Anthropic, OpenAI, Gemini, DeepSeek, xAI, Mistral, OpenRouter, Ollama, or any OpenAI-compatible endpoint. Stored in your OS keychain.
- Permissions
Read/write inside your Orbis data folder. No system-wide changes, no background services.
Three minutes from download to first run
- step 1Install
Open the installer for your OS. Approve the security warning once if needed.
- step 2Onboard
The welcome wizard walks through privacy, permissions, and your LLM key in 60 seconds.
- step 3Paste your LLM key
Anthropic Sonnet or Gemini 2.0 Flash are cheap-and-fast defaults. Or use OpenAI / DeepSeek / xAI / Mistral / Ollama.
- step 4Describe a scenario
Two sentences. Hit Run. Watch live in the Live Run tab while the agent works.
Why your OS may warn you
Unsigned builds will trigger a Gatekeeper / SmartScreen warning on first launch. Code-signed builds roll out per release. If your installer shows the warning, here's how to get past each prompt safely.
Control-click (or right-click) the app icon → Open → Open. After you do this once, macOS remembers and won't prompt again.
Click "More info" on the SmartScreen prompt → "Run anyway". The installer continues normally.
No warnings. For .AppImage, make sure it's executable: chmod +x Orbis-QA-*.AppImage.
