GitLab Orbit is GA: Higher agent accuracy, lower token cost
GitLab Orbit is now generally available, offering a live, queryable context graph that links code, merge requests, pipelines, vulnerabilities, and ownership. In testing, agents using Orbit reduced retries by up to 45× and token consumption by 4.5× compared to ungrounded agents.
Why it matters: Reducing retries and token usage lowers compute cost and speeds up AI-assisted code reviews in large monorepos, improving developer productivity.

GitLab Orbit: Find vulnerability blast radius without the manual hunt
GitLab Orbit, now generally available, lets teams query a graph that links code, merge requests, pipelines, security findings, and ownership to identify affected projects and their owners in minutes. Orbit replaces manual spreadsheets and Slack threads, reducing the time to map vulnerable components to projects and owners.
Why it matters: It cuts exposure time by automating the mapping of vulnerable components to projects and owners, enabling faster remediation.
