MCP

Orbit exposes a Model Context Protocol server so agents can search and fetch contacts in your private network.

​
Endpoint

​
Auth

Two paths:
  1. Browser OAuth — the client opens Orbit; you approve read-only access
  2. Bearer API key — same orb_live_… secret from API keys

​
Tools

​
search_orbit_contacts

Search the authenticated user’s private Orbit network.

​
get_orbit_contact

Fetch one contact (and enrichment) by Orbit contact id.

​
Cursor example

Add an MCP server entry that points at https://orbitmy.co/api/mcp with your preferred auth. Exact JSON varies by Cursor version — use Settings → MCP UI if you prefer not to hand-edit config.

​
Claude / other clients

Any MCP-capable client that supports remote HTTP servers + OAuth or Bearer can connect the same way. Approve read-only access when prompted.

​
Safety

  • Tools only see your Orbit
  • Revoke the API key or OAuth grant to cut access immediately
  • Do not paste orb_live_… into public prompts or tickets
Prefer OAuth for interactive agents; prefer API keys for headless scripts.
