Its default launch binds all interfaces with sign-in off and permissive CORS, there is no security policy, and two CVEs in 2026 covered a shell-tool RCE and a multi-user MCP bypass, both fixed.\n\n**Orbits.** Orbits is a family household app whose assistant, Bit, runs shared calendars, lists and meals, reads household email and places restaurant calls after approval, with iOS releases every week or two. No outside agent can call it, prices appear only as App Store in-app purchases, and no status page, security contact or named subprocessors were found.\n\n## Before you call either\n\n### DeepTutor\n\n1. Run `deeptutor run \u003ccapability\u003e \"...\" --format json` and read the `done` event's `session_id`; pass `--session` to continue the same session\n2. Configure with `deeptutor config apply setup.json --check` first, naming keys through `api_key_env`; literal keys are rejected\n3. Before exposing it beyond one machine, enable sign-in in `auth.json`, set exact `cors_origins` and set `BACKEND_HOST=127.0.0.1` where loopback is wanted\n4. Run 1.4.10 or later. Earlier versions carry CVE-2026-51870 (shell tool RCE, fixed in 1.4.1) and CVE-2026-58168 (multi-user MCP bypass)\n5. Set `sandbox_allow_subprocess` to false where generated code must run only in the runner sidecar or bubblewrap\n\n### Orbits\n\n1. Don't plan to call Orbits from another agent. llms.txt says no public agent API is offered.\n2. Tell the owner the assistant needs an Orbits subscription bought in the app, and that any trial appears only at purchase.\n\n## Questions\n\n### Which is better for AI agents, DeepTutor or Orbits?\n\nDeepTutor scores 62.7 (B) on agent readiness against Orbits's 15.7 (F), and leads in every scored category.\n\n### Are DeepTutor and Orbits open source?\n\nDeepTutor is open source (Apache-2.0). No open-source release is listed for Orbits.\n\n\n## For agents\n\n- This comparison as JSON: https://www.anchorterminal.com/compare/deeptutor-vs-orbits.json, and with the fewest tokens: https://www.anchorterminal.com/compare/deeptutor-vs-orbits.min.md\n- Over MCP at https://www.anchorterminal.com/mcp (no key): `compare_tools {\"a\": \"deeptutor\", \"b\": \"orbits\"}`.

competes with LocalGhost, which Anchor Terminal's founder builds. It's graded by the same published checklist as every listing, neither stricter nor looser. Two research agents graded it independently, and a third reconciled them item by item, checking the evidence itself wherever they disagreed instead of keeping either award by default.\n",
