ALINA OS is an AI-native operating system on NixOS, in daily use today. You speak or type, and a fleet of agents works across the whole machine, with rules about what they remember, a visible record of what they do, and review before anything consequential happens.
Where it's going: an always-on intelligence personal to one human. A personal model that knows you holds the plan and calls frontier models when a task needs them. Your memory, authority and identity live in an OS you own, and every model and agent app is a part you can swap. Read the vision →
- Three memories, one self. Episodic: Loom, one ledger of every session in every agent app (live). Semantic: facts curated nightly by a council of models from three labs (live). Parametric: Engram, a personal model with memory in its weights (research).
- Earned, never assumed. The personal model takes over a role only when it beats frontier models plus retrieval on a benchmark built from your own sessions.
- Your data, your rules. Client and export-controlled work never trains your model. Anything outbound waits for your approval.
- At home. The target is an ALINA box per person: a NixOS machine running your agents, ledger, memory and model under your roof. Long range, custom silicon from ControlStackAI Silicon.
What runs today: partitioned memory that fails closed, a desktop that is an API with every agent window signed and audited, cross-model review with exact-action approvals and receipts, and a whole machine declared in a flake.
