# AOS Community Edition AOS Community Edition is the open agent operating system for people who want an inspectable, composable environment for agents. It owns the Community Edition product surface: the `aos` CLI, HTTP API, distributions, first-party capsules, provider and model experience, and Unicity Audit. ## Workspace layout ```text crates/ Product CLI, HTTP API, control client, and shared product code capsules/ First-party production capsules distros/ Community distribution manifests and release metadata docs/ Product and operator documentation ``` ## Install The supported installer installs the `aos` product command, its pinned runtime, and the exact 21 Community Edition capsules built from this source tree under the product-owned `~/.aos` root: ```sh curl --proto '=https' --tlsv1.2 -fsSL https://aos.unicity.ai/install.sh | sh aos init ``` `aos init`, including `aos init --offline`, provisions from those local, product-versioned capsule assets. Re-running the installer performs a coordinated product upgrade without rewriting a standalone runtime installation. Every release publishes checksums, Sigstore bundles, GitHub build-provenance attestations, and `runtime-compatibility.toml`, which pins the exact runtime release and WIT commit. Its machine-readable runtime-compatibility and upgrade/self-heal gates must both be true before a tag can publish. The latter is approved only after the exact candidate preserves a frozen standalone-home clone and boots with freshly generated runtime coordination state. ## Command boundary AOS owns its product roots, including `init`, `status`, `migrate`, `update`, `distro`, `mcp`, `daemon`, and `serve-health`: ```sh aos status aos status --json aos --principal codex-code mcp serve aos daemon foreground --workspace /workspace ``` On Unix, `aos daemon foreground` replaces the AOS process with the persistent bundled daemon, preserving direct signal and exit-status ownership for process supervisors. On other hosts it waits for the daemon and preserves its exit status. Both paths apply the product-owned runtime home, `.aos` workspace layout, enforced Community Edition distro, and stderr logging environment. Neither path enables ephemeral lifetime. Every other runtime root is part of the AOS CLI directly. Arguments, exit codes, and signals pass through unchanged; there is no nested `aos astrid` or `aos runtime` namespace: ```sh aos doctor aos capsule build ``` When AOS owns a root such as `status`, `init`, `update`, or `mcp`, its product implementation replaces the lower-level command at that same location. The complete supported surface therefore remains `aos <verb>`. Release validation compares the exact pinned runtime's public command inventory with AOS's classified root contract, so a new runtime verb cannot enter a product release without an explicit inherit-or-own decision. `aos mcp serve` is the product edge shared by Codex, Claude, and Grok. A client that supports MCP form elicitation keeps presenting its own constrained approval forms. When a client does not, the default `--interaction auto` mode uses a local AOS decision surface: AppKit on macOS, a native Windows dialog, or Pinentry on Linux. `--interaction client`, `native`, and `deny` make the policy explicit. The local bridge accepts only a single boolean or the fixed AOS approval enum; arbitrary strings, password-shaped fields, and URL elicitations are never collected through it. ## Build on AOS Unicity AOS is the operating system in which agents and agent-native software run. Capsules are general user-space building blocks: users can compose them into harnesses, meta-harnesses, connectors, services, or other systems. Community Edition ships Forge as OS construction tooling so a fresh agent can inspect the running system, learn the capsule model, identify a real capability gap, and build and verify a least-privilege capsule. Forge also installs the `meta-harness` skill, which teaches an agent
