GitLab Orbit provides a live, queryable graph that encompasses the software lifecycle, including code, merge requests, work items, pipelines, vulnerabilities, and ownership. As detailed in the official announcement , GitLab describes the platform as a unified data layer designed to standardize how various agents interact with organizational context. Architecturally, GitLab characterizes Orbit as a shared layer accessible by multiple clients. GitLab states that Orbit draws on data already present in GitLab, requiring no separate connector, ETL pipeline, or secondary system of record. The graph updates dynamically as teams ship, indexing pushes, merges, and deployments.
