The agent runtime.
What your agent computer boots into. A proven open-source runtime, extended and hardened into a full operating system, running the moment your machine is built.
What it does
Makes agents go.
Runtime handles the full lifecycle of an agent doing work: task orchestration, the agentic loop, tool invocation, and surface routing. Every agent on Activated Cloud runs through it. It’s not visible to you most of the time, which is the point.

Foundation
Open foundation. Our operating system.
Activated Cloud OS starts from a proven, MIT-licensed open-source agent runtime — then we go to work on it. We’ve extended and hardened the runtime itself, and built everything that makes it an operating system: the boot and first-run experience, the desktop app that ships the entire runtime inside it, the gateway, the skills system, channels, and the device it will ship on.
The upstream project is credited in the app’s NOTICE file, as its license asks. The foundation is open source; the operating system is ours.
Philosophy
Stand on proven ground.
We build on open source deliberately, the way the platforms we admire do: a widely-exercised foundation means the hard, boring problems — session handling, tool sandboxing, crash recovery — arrive already battle-tested, and our engineering goes into what no one else has: the operating system around it. An open foundation compounds; reinventing it wouldn’t.
It is already running.
The runtime is not something you install or configure. It is what your agent computer boots into, on every plan.
