The Agent Engine
The Agent Engine — the managed runtime, the Anthropic-compatible control plane, and the transcript, file, and memory libraries.
The Agent Engine and AI Gateway are open source under the Apache-2.0 license, released in Developer Preview. Run the whole stack in your own cloud, or let Orca Cloud run it for you — it's the same core either way. No open-core bait-and-switch, no proprietary agent format, no data leaving your workspace.

The Agent Engine — the managed runtime, the Anthropic-compatible control plane, and the transcript, file, and memory libraries.
The AI Gateway — vault-aware model and MCP egress, credential resolution, and audit logging.
The core is the same Apache-2.0 code either way. Self-host in your own cloud, or run it as a managed service on Orca Cloud.
