ANDYL_OS

A from-scratch operating system built on Nix. ANDYL_OS is the foundation layer. Minimal, reproducible, and secure. Purpose-built for servers and IoT devices running ANDYL infrastructure.

CAPABILITIESDOC-AOS-001

Minimal footprint

CAP-001

Built from scratch with no legacy bloat. ANDYL_OS runs on constrained hardware with the smallest possible attack surface.

Image size
Minimal, stripped
Boot time
Sub-second capable
Attack surface
Minimized by design

Nix-based reproducibility

CAP-002

Every build is deterministic. Every deployment is identical. Nix ensures what you test is what you ship.

Builds
Deterministic
Upgrades
Atomic, rollback-safe
Config
Declarative (Nix)

Secure by default

CAP-003

Immutable root filesystem, mandatory access control, and verified boot chain. Security is structural, not bolted on.

CONFIGURATIONDOC-AOS-002

The OS is the infrastructure.

ANDYL_OS eliminates the gap between OS and application. Vector and Orbital capabilities are built into the system layer, not installed on top of it.

Nix provides declarative configuration, atomic upgrades, and instant rollbacks. Every ANDYL_OS node is a known quantity. Reproducible from source to deployment.

{
andyl.vector.enable = true;
andyl.orbital.endpoint = "orbital.andyl.com";
andyl.os.minimal = true;
andyl.os.verifiedBoot = true;
}
