Launch a Free Fleet of Orca AI Agent Coders - Automate Code Routines in 10 Minutes

Step-by-step recipe: install Orca, open multiple parallel AI agents, and assign them tasks - no payment or subscriptions needed

  1. 1.Open the Orca AI Agent repository on GitHub and read the README - make sure the version is up to date this week.

    If the repository is unavailable or marked archived - the recipe can't be completed yet; check forks.

  2. 2.Install Python 3.10+ (if not already installed) and run the Orca install command in the terminal following the README instructions.

    Don't enter tokens for paid services unless you plan to use them - Orca works with free models too.

    Python
  3. 3.Create the fleet config file: specify the number of parallel agents (e.g., 3) and connect a free model provider - Ollama locally or the OpenRouter free tier.

    OpenRouter offers free limits on some models; Ollama runs fully offline but requires 8 GB of RAM.

  4. 4.Describe the fleet's task in the system prompt: what the agents should do, in which language, and in what format to return results. Replace [topic] and [programming_language] with your own values.

    The more precisely you describe the output format - the less manual editing you'll need.

    Orca AI Agent About this tool
    Prompt
    You are a fleet of [3] independent AI coding agents working in parallel on the same task.
    Task: Write a working [language] module that [topic].
    Each agent must produce its own version of the code, then the fleet compares outputs and returns the best one.
    Output format:
    1. Three code blocks (Agent A / B / C)
    2. A summary table comparing them
    3. The recommended final version
    What this prompt doesEnglish prompt: describes a fleet of three independent AI coders, each writes its own version of a module in the chosen language, then the fleet compares results and returns the best one. Replace [3] with the desired number of agents, [language] with the programming language (e.g., Python), [topic] with a specific task (e.g., 'CSV parser with validation').
  5. 5.Launch the fleet with the command from the README (usually «orca run config.yaml»), wait for completion, and open the output file with all agents' results.

    The first run may take 2 - 5 minutes - agents download models or warm up the cache.
