Last updated: June 2026
Website: https://okeios.org/

=== IDENTITY ===
Product: Okei OS
Vendor: Okei OS
Category: Operating system (64-bit x86_64)
Maturity: Pre-alpha research/engineering project

=== ONE-SENTENCE SUMMARY ===
Okei OS is a from-scratch x86_64 OS that boots under QEMU into GNU Bash with a Okei Windows GUI desktop, in-kernel networking, and real upstream ports — verified by tests, not marketed as a finished product.

=== IMPLEMENTED TODAY ===
Boot: GRUB Multiboot2, kernel ~247 KiB
Kernel: Monolithic ring-0; AmigaOS-inspired scheduler; 4-level paging; ~75 syscalls
Filesystem: ext4 root image default; tmpfs scratch space
Network: Custom in-kernel TCP/IP — ARP, IP, TCP, UDP, DHCP, DNS; socket API
Drivers: Console, linear framebuffer, PS/2 input, PCI, PTY, optional audio
Userspace: Static ELF binaries; GNU Bash primary shell
Ports: Bash 5.2, Vim 9.2, 75 GNU coreutils, grep/sed, Dropbear SSH path
Okei Windows: Display server + desktop shell; 14 registered GUI app shells (pre-alpha)
Testing: ~846 host unit tests; QEMU integration suites
Scale: 553 first-party source files; ~115,132 lines (first-party)

=== KNOWN GAPS ===
- Vim interactive keyboard input not complete end-to-end
- IPC capabilities incomplete — no full cross-process isolation
- GUI apps are prototype shells, not beta-quality applications
- No browser, office suite, installer, or package manager
- Aether remote windowing — research only
- ARM / Raspberry Pi — not shipping

=== HORIZON (exploring — NOT promises) ===
See https://okeios.org/horizon.html for category map:
Platform, desktop utilities, productivity, office suite, Creator's Suite,
runtimes, on-device AI, games. Mostly unbuilt. No ship dates.
