Roadmap

PurposeOS is an early prototype. This page separates what works in the current image from what is only designed.

Working today live

• Local executor with retry and fallback, per-app sockets and an encrypted activity log
• Wake word with a phrase you choose, live dictation, voice settings and file opening by exact name
• Indexer for files, file names and the activity log, with semantic and keyword search
• Apps framework: .papp bundles, purpose-pkg, Landlock sandbox, intents and capture routing
• Journal and Scratchpad as reference apps
• Prebuilt disk image for aarch64 with first-boot model download

Planned planned

• Contracts and providers

  Apps declare what they implement and what they use (action@app-id), so you can swap which app fills a capability. The manifest already reserves uses and implements.

• Go SDK

  A module that wraps bind, serve, error kinds and the manifest check.

• Agent definitions

  An agents entry in app.json so an app can ship an agent that runs on the local model.

• Signed apps

  Signing, then network access for signed apps only.

• Seccomp and socket isolation

  Close the gaps listed on the privacy page.

• Semantic search inside apps

  Journal search by meaning through the index.

• Mood and activity analysis

  A periodic job over the encrypted log, on the device, with an app to show it.

• More apps and daemons

  Calendar and mail daemons for add-event and delete-event intents.

• x86_64 image and ISO

  With the LTS kernel.
