The first release of DevOS: a keyboard-driven developer operating center —
terminal, git, an AI assistant with real tools, and ten more modules behind one
command palette.
This is v0.1.0, built by one person for one person. It is not supported
software, and several modules are deliberately a thin slice of the tool they
resemble. The README
has a table saying exactly where each module stops — worth reading before
installing, because it is honest about what is missing rather than what is
promised.
Install
Windows 10/11 x64 only. Download DevOS_0.1.0_x64-setup.exe below (or the
.msi if you prefer). Installs per-user — no administrator rights needed.
Windows will warn you on first run. The installer is not code-signed, so
SmartScreen shows "Windows protected your PC". Choose More info → Run
anyway. That warning is what an unsigned installer looks like; a certificate
is tracked in docs/release-process.md
and not yet bought. If you would rather not click through it,
build from source
instead — the whole point of the repository being public is that you do not
have to trust a binary.
WebView2 is fetched automatically during install if your machine does not
already have it (Windows 11 ships it; some Windows 10 installs do not).
Worth knowing before you start
- The AI features need your own API key. Claude or Gemini (which has a free
tier), or a local Ollama install for fully offline use.
Keys are encrypted with a master key held in the Windows credential store,
never written to the database in plaintext, and never logged. - Your data stays on your machine. There is no telemetry, no account, and
no server. The app only contacts a network when you ask it to — including
update checks, which are manual and never happen on launch. - It backs itself up. Daily automatic snapshots with in-app restore, so an
early-software mistake is recoverable. - Updates are cryptographically signed. Future releases are verified
against a key compiled into this build before anything is installed, so a
compromised release host cannot push you a malicious update.
Known limitations
- Windows only. macOS and Linux are additive work, not started.
- Deployments are read-only by design — no triggering, promoting or rolling
back (ADR-0009). - The database manager is SQLite-only.
- The build-failure watcher hooks PowerShell specifically; other shells get the
terminal without the watcher. - Background monitors stop when the app is closed.
Reporting problems
Bugs and features go through the issue templates.
Security vulnerabilities go through
private advisories,
never a public issue — see SECURITY.md.
Please do not paste API keys, tokens, or database connection strings into an
issue. This app is a secret manager, a terminal and a database browser, so a
screenshot or a pasted log is the easiest way to leak your own credential —
and editing the issue afterwards does not scrub its history.
