Stably Orca — Setup Guide

Source: stablyai/orca (317.5K combined installs) GitHub: github.com/stablyai/orca Category: Agent Orchestration / CLI First Seen: August 12, 2026 Quality Tier: 🟡 Beta (strong core skills, long tail still forming)

Orca is Stably AI's agent orchestration layer. orca-cli (125K installs) is the command-line driver; orchestration (104.2K) defines multi-agent workflow patterns; computer-use (77.3K) adds desktop control. A growing tail covers Linear ticket automation, Android/iOS emulator control, and autonomous PR loops (auto-review-fix, auto-pr-merge).
