Django Orbit

Django Orbit

**AI agent-native observability and debugging for Django.**

Django Orbit is a reusable Django app that records what your application is doing and exposes it through a dashboard and MCP tools. It captures requests, SQL queries, logs, exceptions, cache operations, jobs, storage, mail, permissions and more, then links related events by `family_hash` so humans and AI agents can debug from one coherent timeline.

Unlike Django Debug Toolbar, Orbit does not inject HTML into your app. It lives at its own isolated `/orbit/` URL and is designed to observe from a distance without interfering with the host project.

Why Orbit

Django teams increasingly debug with AI coding agents, but most local observability tools are built only for humans. Orbit is built for both:

• humans get a focused dashboard for inspecting runtime behavior;
• agents get structured MCP tools for investigation and handoff;
• captured events are g
