AIS-OS
A starter skill kit for Claude Code and Codex: personal onboarding, a knowledge base, a system audit and a visual map of knowledge
Medium risk
We rate an entry medium when the tool runs code, makes network calls or reads project files. Check what exactly it does before installing.
Why this level
- Reads and writes knowledge base files
- The knowledge-map skill runs a local server
Install
Manual install
Copy the skills from the repository into the agent's skills directory (.claude/skills or .agents/skills). Start with /onboard, then use /audit, /link, /level-up and /3d-brain.
This is third-party code. Review the repository files before installing.
What it does
AIS-OS turns Claude Code or Codex into a personal operating system built from a set of skills. Onboarding runs a short interview and tailors the system to you, while separate skills make knowledge findable, audit the system, close one useful gap at a time and view the accumulated knowledge as a visual map. The skills live in the agent's skills directory, with a sync script for Codex. The kit is free and universal.
Who it is for. For solopreneurs, operators and creators who want to build a personal operating system on an agent.
Good fit when
- You want to tailor the agent to your work through onboarding
- You need a findable knowledge base about your work
- You need to audit the system and close gaps
Not a fit when
- You need a one-off answer rather than a personal system
- You are not ready to maintain a knowledge base
Example request
Run the AIS-OS onboarding and tailor the system to my business, then show what to focus on this weekLimitations
The kit pays off only if you keep the knowledge base up to date. The visual-map skill runs a local viewer on Node and needs a recent Node version. The agent itself calls its model, whose availability from Russia should be checked separately.
How to disable. Delete the AIS-OS skills from your agent's .claude/skills or .agents/skills directory.
Security check

README in short
The README describes AIS-OS as a free starter kit that turns Claude Code or Codex into a personal operating system. The kit personalizes itself through onboarding and includes skills for knowledge findability, a system audit, closing gaps and a visual map. The skills live in the agent's skills directory, Codex has a sync script, and the knowledge map runs on a local Node server. It lists signs that the system is working.
SKILL.md
--- name: onboard description: Use on Day 1 of an AIS-OS install, when someone says "set me up", "onboard me", "let's get started", "fill in my AIOS", or has just cloned the kit. Combined wizard, runs the 7-question intake AND scaffolds the Day-1 file set at the end. Idempotent, re-run any time after editing aios-intake.md. --- ## What this skill does Single combined wizard. Reads or writes aios-intake.md (the canonical intake), conducts the 7-question interview if the file isn't filled, then scaffolds the Day-1 file set inline at the end of the run. ## When NOT to run this - If the user has already onboarded and wants to refresh: still run, but skip questions already answered. - If the user wants to add a new connection: point them at connections.md to edit directly.
