Claude Code plugin

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 orbit

Run 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-ml

MCP 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 https://api.orbitpeople.ai/mcp). Remote transport is what lets Claude Code run the OAuth browser flow — there's no local process and no key in your config.

Without the plugin

Any MCP client can use the same hosted server directly — see MCP server. The plugin adds the slash commands and the market-map skill on top.
