AI-OS

Current state (compiled truth — 2026-07-09 early AM)

AI-OS is Arijit's personal operating system — the biggest active build in the portfolio, and the umbrella this vault itself serves. After the overnight build marathon of 2026-07-08 (v1 → v1.1 → Instrument redesign → two experience audits → voice → analytics — every stage independently verified), what exists: - v6 home screen: motherboard design — ALL FOUR CHIPS BUILT, WIRED, AND VERIFIED (2026-07-09, night). After the ~5-hour visual-direction marathon converged on the motherboard metaphor (CPU=Jarvis, RAM=vault/second-brain, GPU=projects, PSU=power/cost, focus-based click-to-zoom), the CPU chip build took 9 rounds (~1.5 days elapsed across sessions) to get right — root cause: a CSS-drawn chip can never physically integrate with a fixed photo (position/rotation/perspective all have to match ONE specific image, and trial-and-error CSS transforms can't). The fix that worked: generate the chip baked directly into the PCB photo via AI image-editing (real photo as reference), then layer only live/reactive behavior (glow pulse, amp-driven color shift, fume particles, click hit-area) on top via code, anchored to the baked chip's measured pixel position. Arijit's verdict: "Now THIS IS PERFECT... we finally got it." The same recipe applied to RAM/GPU/PSU in one combined image pass, and then their code-wiring (measured pixel positions, hit-areas, click behavior, hologram/panel content) landed in a SINGLE dispatch with zero failed rounds — direct validation that the 6 codified pre-flight gates work: RAM opens a corner-bracket-only volumetric galaxy hologram with real cluster drill-down, GPU opens a HUD-frame project list that navigates to the real CI-OS plan view, PSU opens a HUD-frame cost summary that navigates to the real Usage & Value screen with matching numbers, and CPU verified unbroken by the change. All four chips are now fully interactive end to end. The 6 pre-flight gates are codified in docs/knowledge/fable-design/FABLE-DESIGN-METHOD.md → "Pre-flight gates" section, cross-linked into memory, and the RAM/GPU/PSU pass is the first real proof they prevent the CPU-style multi-round failure. - The Jarvis cockpit is LIVE and rich (localhost:4720, AI-OS/cockpit/jarvis/, launch python3 server.py): living brain view over the vault, projects/tasks/usage/skills/models/SOPs screens in the Arijit-approved "Swiss Instrument" design language (docs/planning/JARVIS-DESIGN-LANGUAGE.md — dark/cosmos permanently banned). Jarvis is a grounded Claude persona (headless claude -p per turn, persona yaml embedded, context pack from real data) with ElevenLabs "Adam" voice — emotional delivery (sighs/laughter tags), always interruptible ("shut up" works), male by mandate. Speech CHOREOGRAPHS the UI: the morning brief (08:45 daily) stages his real calendar and highlights meetings as Adam names them. 57+ tests green at last verification. - Working systems inside the cockpit: skills playground (3-door intake behind skill-verifier, NEEDS_CONFIRMATION gated execution — proven with real runs), local scheduler + chowmes VPS cron transport (verified end-to-end), morning brief on real calendar/inbox/burn, "Usage & Value" analytics (subscription = the only real money — $200 Max exhausted 2026-07-08 → Algolia workspace sub; list-price value labeled everywhere; session value ledger with 🔴🟡🟢 efficiency flags reconciling to the cent; lessons loop — first finding: ~55k-token auto-brief overhead per page load). - The brain data is honest end-to-end (2026-07-08): 0 orphans, 0 broken links, concept clusters edge-earned with visible "why together" reasons (3 concept + 11 project + satellites), the link resolver follows real Obsidian semantics (a class fix that rerouted 5 silently-wrong edges and exposed 2 never-created project indexes, both stubbed honestly). - Documentation suite at AI-OS/docs/jarvis/ (6 files, code-cited): what-is / architecture+data-flow / personality / knowledge+data / modularity+personalize-to-anybody. Maintenance rule: docs update with every slice. - Fleet designed, not built (docs/planning/FLEET-DESIGN.md, citation-audited): 5 roles (Orchestrator-fable / Builder-sonnet / Researcher-sonnet / Verifier-opus NEW / Librarian-fable), zero-trust supervision loop codified, Hermes = adopt patterns not runtime (not-yet), build plan F1-F5, 5 decisions pending Arijit (§7). - Working agreements (all in memory + SOPs): traffic-light DONE/NOW/PENDING status tables + /persist at logical stages · model-tier discipline (Fable = orchestration only; declared per dispatch) · experience-verify gate (an agent plays the user before "done") · log-language precision (claimed vs spot-verified vs gate-verified) · no audible testing on Arijit's machine · cost framing (API-equivalent is never "spend"). - Wonder layer (2026-07-08 midday): a real WebGL shader atmosphere reacts to Jarvis's state AND live voice amplitude (the galaxy beats with Adam's speech); particle-physics events (fly-in convergence, mention bursts, hover auroras — zero at idle); variable-font numeral choreography; measured 60fps on the M3 GPU with a proven degrade ladder. All zero-asset math. Method source: Nick Saraev's Fable-design video, extracted to docs/knowledge/fable-design/FABLE-DESIGN-METHOD.md (genre-is-law / technique-is-free synthesis). - Asset forge: /api/imagine (Gemini Nano Banana, server-side GEMINI_API_KEY, key-scrub tested, 74 tests) — the cockpit generates its own imagery; first commissions (PRISM emblem, panel texture) verified excellent. Higgsfield MCP registered user-scope (video/animation gen) — awaiting Arijit's one-time OAuth in a fresh session. An asset-composer pass (11 project emblems, Chow Man crest, panel materials) is IN FLIGHT at this writing. - Honest position vs vision (2026-07-08 assessment): personal-OS layer ~50% (deploy/anywhere-access, fleet build, health+finance modules are the open levers — all Arijit decisions); product/multi-tenant layer ~25%. Tracker updates at logical stages, NOT yet per-commit (offered hook pending). - The product vision: multi-tenant, modular, sellable ("anyone swaps their health module for mine") — see product-vision + docs/jarvis/05-MODULARITY-AND-PERSONALIZATION.md.

This folder is ALSO the self-model: how Arijit thinks, works, and what he demands of partners — the person-layer the OS serves.

The intended execution engine for AI-OS is Hermes (Nous Research's agent runtime). Everything learned about it is gathered in the Hermes learning area, hubbed at the Hermes source map — we study it because it is what runs the work while this vault stays the source of truth.

Contents

  • Operating-Principles — how Arijit wants to be partnered with. The no-yes-man contract.
  • About-Arijit — the "knowing me" doc: who he is, what he is doing, and the My OS vision (grown in his own words).
  • My-Projects — the cross-project tracker: a one-pager per project plus an append-only progress log. Maintained by the project-tracker skill. Backing data for the future My OS project-tracker component.
  • My-OS-Specs — what My OS is and its components (project tracker, dashboard, persist integration, cross-project awareness, CLAUDE.md hygiene, repo rigour), captured as Arijit specifies them.

Design seed. The second-brain half of AI-OS is seeded by Karpathy's LLM-wiki pattern — a persistent, LLM-maintained wiki that compounds knowledge instead of re-deriving it. This vault is that pattern in practice; the research and its trade-offs live under the knowledge base.

Purpose

Everything else in this vault is knowledge, standards, and work. This folder is the self-model. It is where Arijit writes about himself and his soul, and where anyone (human or AI) working closely with him can learn the terms of a real partnership with him.

Created 2026-06-30, at Arijit's request, on a night the PRISM conveyor belt shipped its first product and he chose to record what good partnership means to him.

See log.md this date.

  • 2026-07-09 (early AM) · v6 home screen redesign: ~5hr visual-direction marathon (galaxy → cortex → honeycomb → blueprint → circuit-board → PCB-texture, several hard rejections) converged on a motherboard metaphor (CPU=Jarvis/RAM=vault/GPU=projects/PSU=power, focus-based zoom). Full design interview run before any code; spec + reference images written and committed to the AI-OS repo (docs/superpowers/specs/2026-07-09-home-motherboard-design.md, docs/planning/references/). See log.md this date; SESSION.md in AI-OS repo.
  • 2026-07-09 (day) · CPU chip build: 6 code-build rounds (CSS-overlay approach, all wrong — wrong material, wrong position, wrong rotation twice, undershoot-then-overcorrect on angle) before switching to AI-image-bake approach in round 6, which worked immediately once dispatched with measured pixel coordinates. Then generated RAM/GPU/PSU into the same board in one image pass + 2 targeted connection-cleanup edits (3 rounds total for all three, vs 6 rounds for CPU alone). Arijit named the cost problem directly mid-session ("burning money here... killing my tokens") after 2 full agent dispatches were spent tuning a single CSS rotation value. Root causes diagnosed and codified as 6 pre-flight gates in docs/knowledge/fable-design/FABLE-DESIGN-METHOD.md; 3 feedback/project memories saved cross-session. Final asset: cockpit/jarvis/generated/1783567929-pcb-motherboard-all4chips.webp, all 4 chips approved. CPU wired into live code (glow/pulse/panel); RAM/GPU/PSU code-wiring is the next session's first task. See log.md this date; SESSION.md in AI-OS repo.
