dot-orbit
Manage what’s in your personal orbit.
Pick from five dark themes and four light ones. Your theme carries through the whole app, and dot-orbit remembers your choice on this device.
Organise your tasks by project and category. Tasks can stand alone or be part of a project. Plan your day by choosing which tasks to add to Today.
See how a project is progressing as you complete its tasks. You can give each task its own due date and arrange them in the order that works for you.
Use categories to group projects and standalone tasks. Tasks use their project’s category by default, but you can choose a different one whenever you need to.
Focus on today, look ahead to upcoming deadlines or browse everything you still need to do. You can also look back at completed work and search your archive.
The tasks you’ve chosen to focus on, grouped into Planned and In progress.
See what’s overdue and what’s due from today through the same day next week.
All your unfinished tasks, in the order you choose. Today follows the same order.
Look back at finished tasks and search archived projects and tasks.
dot-orbit does not choose or contact an AI provider. You choose the tool and what to share with it. Bring its suggestions back into dot-orbit to check and approve before anything changes.
An AI tool can propose new work without seeing your workspace. To help it work with existing tasks, review and copy a Planning snapshot from the app. This leaves out archived and binned work, but included category and participant names may still reveal private information.
Enter or paste a proposal, open or drop in a proposal file, or receive one through local MCP. dot-orbit checks it against your workspace and shows you what it would add or change.
When you’re happy with the proposal, choose Apply changes or Add new work. dot-orbit saves an encrypted recovery point first, then applies the whole proposal together. The AI tool cannot approve its own suggestions.
A compatible AI tool can connect to the unlocked app through the MCP adapter included with dot-orbit. The connection stays on your computer, is limited to your operating-system account and does not listen for network connections. The adapter cannot open or unlock your workspace, and never receives your passphrase or encryption keys.
Choose whether each tool can read context, submit proposals, or both. Read access is limited to the context covered by your approval. Submitted proposals go through the same review as ones you paste or open yourself. The tool cannot apply changes for you.
AI features and Local MCP each have a switch in Settings on this device. Both are off by default. You approve each new connection’s permissions. If you choose to remember an approval, reconnection is allowed while the credentials, account, workspace and permissions still match. If any of these change, you’ll be asked again.
Disconnect at any time: turn off either switch, lock your workspace, close dot-orbit or revoke a tool’s access. Active connections close and their access expires. Remembering an approval does not keep a connection open.
Check what you share with other tools. Copying workspace context puts unencrypted text on your clipboard after you confirm. MCP read access also shares unencrypted context with the connected tool. dot-orbit does not contact an AI provider, but that tool may send the context to one under its own privacy policy.
Your workspace and backups are encrypted with your passphrase. There’s no account to create and no built-in sync. If you want to keep a backup elsewhere, you choose where it goes.
Your passphrase unlocks the workspace on your computer. Keep it safe: there’s no online account recovery if you forget it.
Choose where to keep your workspace file, and dot-orbit remembers it on this device. Your projects, tasks, categories and Today list are all stored together.
Keep encrypted backups on your computer or in a folder managed by a sync service you use.
