AOS Community Edition is an open-source 'agent operating system' written in Rust that provides a CLI (`aos`), HTTP API, daemon, and MCP server for running and managing AI agents in composable units called capsules. It ships first-party capsules, provider/model tooling, and audit features under an Apache-2.0 license.

Use cases

• run AI agents locally with an inspectable runtime
• serve MCP to clients like Codex, Claude, and Grok
• build and manage agent capsules from source
• self-host an agent operating system with a daemon
• audit and verify agent runtime releases with provenance attestations
• manage agent workspaces with init, status, and update commands

When to choose

• you want an open, composable environment for running AI agents
• you need an MCP server edge shared across multiple AI coding clients
• you value supply-chain verification like Sigstore bundles and build provenance
• you prefer a Rust-based, self-hosted agent runtime with a CLI workflow

When to avoid

• you need a simple one-off agent script rather than a full runtime platform
• you require a managed cloud agent service with a GUI
• you are not comfortable with CLI-driven, capsule-based workflows
• you need Windows-first support, since Unix process supervision is the primary path
