What $19 actually does
Observe stays free. The key unlocks verbs that start work on your machine. None of them type into a Grok window you already have open.
Resume
New Grok console
Opens a new Grok console on the session you picked. It does not inject into a live TUI. Sample cards cannot resume because they are not a real session.
COOK
In-app staff loop
Header button, confirm once. Orbit then starts new one-shot Grok consoles on named project wells that have a local clone, are not desk-claimed, and have no live pager. Idle Cursor agents can get a capped follow-up. A cook window that closes means that turn finished. STOP COOK turns the loop off. Already-open consoles stay up. No Task Scheduler. No auto-approve.
Orbit ACP
Ask-mode agent
An agent session Orbit owns. Start one in a project folder, or attach an idle Grok session. Send a prompt. Answer permission asks one by one. Never attaches a live TUI. Never runs with always-approve.
Hand off
Copy free, continue paid
Copy handoff is free. It copies a redacted pack (project, branch, last notes). Continue in Orbit ACP is paid. It starts a new Orbit ACP in the linked project clone and feeds it that pack. Web chats with no local clone stay copy-only.
Cursor follow-up
One extra Cloud Agent run
After you confirm, Orbit posts one extra run to an existing Cursor Cloud Agent. Busy agents refuse; open them in the browser instead. This is only for cursor.com agents.
FAQ
Paid tools, answered
Short answers that match what the app actually does. Open a question for the rest.
What is free, and what do I pay $19 for?
Download, install, Galaxy, Clearance, connecting Grok CLI / Grok Bot / grok.com / Cursor / other keys, opening folders, and copying a handoff pack are free.
$19 is a one-time key that unlocks verbs that start work: Resume, COOK, Orbit ACP, Continue in Orbit ACP, and Cursor follow-up.
What does Resume do?
Resume opens a new Grok console on that session. It does not type into a Grok window you already have open. Pick a real CLI session, then Resume in Grok. Sample cards cannot resume.
What does COOK do?
COOK is a header button. You confirm once. Orbit then runs an in-app loop and starts new one-shot Grok consoles on named project wells that have a local clone, are not claimed by another desk, and have no live pager. Idle Cursor agents can get a capped follow-up. When a cook window closes, that turn finished. STOP COOK turns the loop off. COOK does not use Task Scheduler, does not inject into live pagers, and does not auto-approve tools.
What is Orbit ACP?
Orbit ACP is an agent session Orbit owns. You can start a new session in a project folder, attach an idle Grok session, send a prompt, and answer permission asks one by one. It never attaches a live TUI pager. It never runs with always-approve.
What is hand off?
Copy handoff is free. It copies a redacted pack (project, branch, last notes) to the clipboard. Continue in Orbit ACP is paid. It starts a new Orbit ACP in the linked project clone and feeds it that pack. Web chats with no local clone stay copy-only.
What is Cursor follow-up?
Cursor follow-up sends one extra run to an existing Cursor Cloud Agent after you confirm. Busy agents refuse; open them in the browser instead. This is only for cursor.com agents.
Will Orbit take over a Grok window I already have open?
No. Resume, COOK, ACP attach, and Continue in Orbit ACP all refuse a live Grok TUI. They open new work or they copy. They do not hijack the pager you are looking at.
Why does Sample refuse Resume?
Sample is a fake well so an empty install is not a blank board. It is not a real Grok session, so Resume has nothing to open.
How do I unlock?
Email on this page or in the app, type the 6-digit code in the same tab, pay $19 once on Stripe, then activate the key. Galaxy stays usable if you never pay.
Is the Windows installer signed?
No. The installer is not Authenticode-signed. SmartScreen will say the publisher is unknown. Click More info, then Run anyway. Leave SmartScreen on.
