Orthogonal

Orthogonal is a development-tool specialist that concentrates on streamlining the way autonomous agents discover, install and update their own capabilities. Its sole public offering, APM – Agent Package Manager, treats every reusable behavior, model connector or utility function as an installable “skill” that can be pulled into an agent at runtime, version-pinned and kept current without human intervention. Built with Go and designed to run headless in containers, edge nodes or cloud micro-services, the manager maintains a decentralized registry of skill packages, resolves inter-skill dependencies, performs atomic upgrades and rolls back instantly if an update breaks compatibility. Typical use cases include AI orchestration platforms that need to hot-swap language-model toolkits, robotics stacks that fetch new motion planners on demand, and IT-automation frameworks where self-updating bots must acquire fresh API clients or security modules while they operate. By reducing agent maintenance to a single declarative manifest, Orthogonal lets DevOps teams treat agent capabilities like cloud infrastructure: reproducible, auditable and continuously delivered. The publisher’s software is available for free on get.nero.com, with downloads supplied through trusted Windows package sources such as winget, always installing the latest release and supporting batch installation of multiple applications.
