venixOS
Linux for the AI era.
venixOS is a modern Linux desktop integrated with PUKNO.
A local, private AI layer, that understands your work, remembers what you choose, and keeps you in control.
A concept preview of the product direction. PUKNO integration and venixOS are in active development.

What was I working on before the client call yesterday?
You were refining the deployment plan. You had the architecture PDF open, were editing the infrastructure notes, and comparing the last two implementation options.

Ask anything about your context Super + Space
A new kind of desktop
An OS that understands what you’re doing.
venixOS is designed to be your everyday operating system: fast, focused and familiar enough to disappear into your work. The difference is that personal AI is treated as part of the system, not another tab.
PUKNO remembers.
With your permission, files, research, documents, projects and knowledge can become useful context that helps PUKNO understand what you mean.
AI where you need it.
Ask, summarize, recall, connect and continue your work without rebuilding context every time you open an AI chat.
Powered by COSMIC
A desktop built to move with you.
venixOS uses COSMIC as its desktop foundation: modern workspaces, flexible panels, productive window management and deep customization, shaped into a distinct venixOS experience.
Stay in flow
Space for every way you work.
Organize the desktop around the task in front of you. Tile when you need focus. Float when you need freedom. Move between workspaces without losing your train of thought.
- Flexible panels and dock layouts
- Tiling and floating workflows
- Dynamic workspaces across displays

Yours by design
Make the system feel like yours.
venixOS will ship with its own visual identity, while keeping COSMIC’s flexibility underneath. Theme the desktop, tune your panels and shape the environment around the way you think.
- System-wide theming
- Configurable panels and applets
- A coherent venixOS visual language

PUKNO inside venixOS
AI that starts with your context.
Instead of asking you to explain everything you do to a chatbot, venixOS is being designed so PUKNO can help from the context created over time.
PUKNO AssistantContext from your venixOS workspace
On device
Summarize what I learned about private AI this week and connect it to the project I’m working on.
You explored three recurring ideas: local inference, confidential compute and long-term personal context. The architecture document you edited yesterday already uses the first two. Your research notes suggest the missing piece is a persistent context layer across devices.

Less prompting.
More doing.
PUKNO can become a system-level companion for recall, research and continuity. Search your own knowledge in natural language, reconnect to unfinished work, and bring the right personal context into the moment you need it.
›“Where did I leave off on this project?”
›“Find the paper that changed how I was thinking about this.”
›“Compare these files with what I learned last month.”
›“Turn this context into a first draft.”
One workflow, continuous context
Pick up the thought, not the setup.
Research in the browser, shape the idea in your notes, then build in the terminal. PUKNO is there with you
PUKNO - Private Personal Intelligence- Research
Explore normally.
Read, compare and collect sources in the tools you already use.
- Connect
Keep the useful thread.
All documents and sessions become working context.
- Create
Bring it into the work.
Surface the relevant decisions when you move into your editor or terminal.
- Act
Approve the next step.
Let PUKNO prepare an action, then review it before anything changes.

Private inference patterns
The current design keeps routine retrieval local and escalates only the minimum required context for larger workloads.

Your tools are still your tools
Built for makers, thinkers and everyday work.
AI should extend your workflow, not replace it. venixOS keeps the full Linux desktop underneath — files, development tools, media, browsers and the apps you choose.
Build without friction.
A modern terminal and developer workflow, with PUKNO available to help you recover commands, understand project context and continue where you stopped.
Create with context nearby.
Code, write and research with your personal knowledge within reach — without forcing every task into a separate AI application.
Your files become understandable.
Browse them normally when you know where they are. Ask PUKNO when you only remember what they were about.
One personal context layer.
Documents, books, research, media and the things you work on can become one long-term memory that makes the assistant more useful over time.
Personal AI needs a different foundation
Your context should belong to you.
venixOS is being designed around local intelligence. PUKNO should use your private context to help you — not turn that context into someone else’s dataset.
Local by design.
Personal context and intelligence run locally on the device where your work happens, with local models used wherever they are needed.
Permission before context.
Planned controls make it clear which applications, files and sessions PUKNO can use, with the ability to pause or remove access.
You approve what happens next
PUKNO can prepare actions across your desktop, but meaningful changes remain visible, reviewable, and under your control.

venixOS is planned around an Ubuntu foundation and the COSMIC desktop, then customized for a world where personal AI is part of the computer itself.
