THE AI-TADPOLE-OS RUNTIME

Intelligence.
On your terms.

Orchestrate AI agents on infrastructure you own. See every action, keep memory close, and put people in control of execution.

The architecture

Your intent.
A clear path to execution.

Three inspectable layers connect your team's strategy to the machine. Keep directives, orchestration, and execution close to the infrastructure you control.

  1. 01

    Directive layer

    Define the intent.

    Write your operating procedures in Markdown. Versioned, human-authored directives give every agent a clear source of truth.

    Human-defined
  2. 02

    Orchestration layer

    Coordinate the work.

    Agent 99 breaks objectives into tasks, coordinates the swarm, and refines long-term memory through self-annealing.

    Agent-coordinated
  3. 03

    Execution layer

    Execute with control.

    A Rust-native engine runs deterministic scripts and tools in parallel with controlled, memory-safe concurrency.

    Rust-powered

Inspectable by design. Governed by your team.

Inside the workspace

Powerful systems.
A clear point of view.

Real screens from the React + Tauri desktop runtime. See your agents, understand their work, and keep every decision within reach.

Stay in the decision loop.

Review human approval gates and trace decisions through cryptographic Merkle audit histories.

A head start for your industry

Built for the work
you actually do.

Start with a specialized role. Inspect its directives, make it your own, and add it to your local swarm.

The industry catalog

223 specialized roles.
81 templates in 25 collections.

From engineering and security to marketing, finance, spatial computing, and academic workflows. Compose modular role directives or launch turnkey starter templates.

Engineering direction

A foundation.
Built to go further.

Follow the work in the open. These focus areas describe the project's direction; the source repository is the reference for available features and releases.

  1. 01

    A dependable core

    Rust execution, inspectable telemetry, and human approval gates form the foundation.

  2. 02

    Context that stays close

    Desktop observability and private memory keep your team connected to agent decisions.

  3. 03

    Connected local workflows

    Mesh discovery and coordination support the direction toward work across local nodes.

  4. 04

    Deeper governance

    Continued work on audit records, operational controls, and governed multi-agent execution.
