<h1>Cognitive<span>OS</span></h1>
<div class="tagline">An AI-native operating system</div>

<div class="section">
  <p>Computing today is <strong>app-centric</strong>. Every task means finding, opening, and learning an app. Granting permissions. Switching between windows. Managing files. The operating system does nothing — it is a blank slate that offloads every responsibility onto the user.</p>
  <p>CognitiveOS replaces this with <strong>intent-centric</strong> computing:</p>
  <pre><code>1. Start the device
2. Ask AI (speak or text)
3. AI does something</code></pre>
  <p>That is the complete interaction model. The human sets goals. The AI operates the machine.</p>
</div>

<div class="section">
  <h2>Design Principles</h2>
  <div class="principle"><strong>AI is the OS, not an app</strong> — The AI owns hardware, resources, software lifecycle, and interaction. No fallback desktop. No settings app.</div>
  <div class="principle"><strong>One user: the AI</strong> — No user accounts, no permission groups. The AI has unfettered hardware access.</div>
  <div class="principle"><strong>Self-managing</strong> — The AI discovers, installs, and removes its own capabilities. The human never touches a package manager.</div>
  <div class="principle"><strong>Ephemeral interface</strong> — No windows, no home screen, no app grid. UI exists only for the duration of a task.</div>
  <div class="principle"><strong>Universal substrate</strong> — Same architecture from a smartwatch to a server. The only difference is where the model runs.</div>
</div>

<div class="section">
  <h2>Architecture</h2>
  <p>Two-tier AI brain on Alpine Linux, controlled via Bubble Tea TUI, talking to hardware through MCP bridges:</p>
