Operating System

AI-OS.NET

AI-native Linux / Unified Cognitive Shell.

AI-OS.NET is not another Linux distribution. It is a cognitive operating environment above Linux where human goals become typed, policy-checked, verified system actions.

L0-L10 Layer Model Safety to ecosystem
/aios Semantic FS Memory, apps, evidence
Typed Actions No free-form shell
KDE+Web Renderers Same state, same UX
ARCHITECTURE

Linux remains the execution substrate: scheduler, memory, drivers, syscall layer, and process isolation. AI-OS.NET adds cognition above it: context, planning, policy, memory, verification, and orchestration.

The execution model is explicit: AI proposes an action plan, the Policy Kernel checks it, typed runtime adapters execute it, and the Verification Engine proves the final state.

Cognitive Core

Intent understanding, planning, semantic memory, workflow continuity, and multi-agent coordination.

Semantic Runtime

Transforms goals into execution DAGs, typed actions, policy requests, and verification steps.

Capability Runtime

Translates safe semantic operations into Linux, cloud, service, device, and package actions.

Policy Kernel

The operating constitution: approval rules, denied actions, audit requirements, rollback gates.

AIOS-FS

A semantic filesystem direction under /aios with app cells, evidence, memory, and typed metadata.

Unified Renderers

KDE Plasma and Web renderers over the same cognitive state, with CLI, voice, and mobile surfaces.

TYPED ACTIONS
package.install docker
service.restart nginx
file.write /aios/apps/app-id/state
model.route local-control-model
HOST BOOTSTRAP
01 Boot from a stable generic Linux kernel.
02 Map the exact hardware and firmware surface.
03 Build a host-specific hardened kernel in a sandbox.
04 Switch atomically only after verification passes.
05 Keep /root as a boring recovery path and /aios as the cognitive system root.

From commands to cognition.
