Claude Code plugin
/plugin install orbit → slash commands + market-map skill + Obsidian graph view.
The Orbit Claude Code plugin gives you Orbit's full workflow inside any Claude Code session. Authentication is OAuth — no API key to paste.
Install
/plugin marketplace add connect-upskill/orbit-plugin
/plugin install orbitRun both commands. The first registers the marketplace source; the second installs the plugin into your session.
On first use the orbit MCP server opens a browser for OAuth consent. If re-authentication is ever needed, run /mcp → select orbit → Authenticate.
What you get
Slash commands
/orbit-search <brief>Run a people search and summarize results inline.
/orbit-export <projectId> [md|json|csv] [dir]Write finished results to disk.
Skills
/orbit:market-map <brief> [dir] — searches, writes one markdown note per person + _index.md into a folder, opens Obsidian. The market as a graph.
/orbit:market-map senior ML engineers at fintech startups in Berlin ./berlin-mlMCP tools
orbit_search, orbit_status, orbit_results — available to the agent directly.
How it works
The bundled orbit MCP server is remote (type: "http", pointed at <orbit-url>/mcp). Remote transport is what lets Claude Code run the OAuth browser flow — there's no local process and no key in your config.
