Intro

Orca is a multi-agent IDE that helps you run and supervise CLI coding agents side-by-side across repositories, with worktree-native isolation and fast diff review.

Best for: Parallelizing agent work across repos/branches while keeping changes reviewable

Works with: macOS/Windows/Linux; integrates with many CLI agents listed in README

Setup time: 10–25 minutes

Key facts (verified)

  • README lists install paths via onOrca.dev, GitHub Releases, and Homebrew cask.

Main

A lightweight operating model:

  1. Give each agent a dedicated worktree so branches and dependencies never conflict.
  2. Keep a review loop: agents draft changes, you review diffs, then commit/merge.
  3. Use notifications/status to time-box agents and prevent “forgotten” background work.

FAQ

Q: Is Orca tied to one agent vendor? A: README positions it as supporting many CLI agents, not a single vendor lock-in.

Q: How do I install it? A: README lists downloads via onOrca.dev / GitHub Releases and a Homebrew cask install.

Q: Why worktrees? A: Worktree-native isolation lets you run multiple agents without stashing or branch collisions (README positioning).
