+
+## 🎯 What You'll Build in 5 Minutes
+
+```python
+from agent_os import KernelSpace, Policy
+
+# 1. Define safety policies (not prompts - actual enforcement)
+kernel = KernelSpace(policies=[
+    Policy.no_destructive_sql(),      # Block DROP, DELETE without WHERE
+    Policy.file_access("/workspace"), # Restrict file access
+    Policy.rate_limit(100, "1m"),     # Max 100 calls/minute
+])
+
+# 2. Your agent code runs in user space
+@kernel.register
+async def data_analyst(query: str):
+    result = await llm.generate(f"Analyze: {query}")
+    return result
+
+# 3. Kernel intercepts and validates EVERY action
+result = await kernel.execute(data_analyst, "revenue by region")
+# ✅ Safe queries execute
+# ❌ "DROP TABLE users" → BLOCKED (not by prompt, by kernel)
+```
+
+**Result:** Defined policies are deterministically enforced by the kernel—not by hoping the LLM follows instructions.
+
+---
+
+## What is Agent OS?
+
+Agent OS applies operating system concepts to AI agent governance. Instead of relying on prompts to enforce safety ("please don't do dangerous things"), it provides application-level middleware that intercepts and validates agent actions before execution.
+
+> **Note:** This is application-level enforcement (Python middleware), not OS kernel-level isolation. Agents run in the same process. For true isolation, run agents in containers.
+
+```
+┌─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┐
+│              USER SPACE (Agent Code)                    │
+│   Your agent code runs here. The kernel intercepts      │
+│   actions before they execute.                          │
+├─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┤
+│              KERNEL SPACE                               │
+│   Policy Engine │ Flight Recorder │ Signal Dispatch     │
+│   Actions are checked against policies before execution │
+└─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┘
+```
+
+## The Idea
+
+**Prompt-based safety** asks the LLM to follow rules. The LLM decides whether to comply.
+
+**Kernel-based safety** intercepts actions before execution. The policy engine decides, not the LLM.
+
+This is the same principle operating systems use: applications request resources, the kernel grants or denies access based on permissions.

+
+---
+
+## Quick Example
+
+```python
+from agent_os import KernelSpace
+
+# Create kernel with policy
+kernel = KernelSpace(policy="strict")
+
+@kernel.register
+async def my_agent(task: str):
+    # Your LLM code here
+    return llm.generate(task)
+
+# Actions are checked against policies
+result = await kernel.execute(my_agent, "analyze this data")
+```
+
+---
+
+## POSIX-Inspired Primitives
+
+Agent OS borrows concepts from POSIX operating systems:
+
+| Concept | POSIX | Agent OS |
+|---------|-------|----------|
+| Process control | `SIGKILL`, `SIGSTOP` | `AgentSignal.SIGKILL`, `AgentSignal.SIGSTOP` |
+| Filesystem | `/proc`, `/tmp` | VFS with `/mem/working`, `/mem/episodic` |
+| IPC | Pipes (`\|`) | Typed IPC pipes between agents |
+| Syscalls | `open()`, `read()` | `kernel.execute()` |
+
+### Signals
+
+```python
+from agent_os import SignalDispatcher, AgentSignal
+
+dispatcher.signal(agent_id, AgentSignal.SIGSTOP)  # Pause
+dispatcher.signal(agent_id, AgentSignal.SIGCONT)  # Resume
+dispatcher.signal(agent_id, AgentSignal.SIGKILL)  # Terminate
+```
+
+### VFS (Virtual File System)
+
+```python
+from agent_os import AgentVFS
+
+vfs = AgentVFS(agent_id="agent-001")
+vfs.write("/mem/working/task.txt", "Current task")
+vfs.read("/policy/rules.yaml")  # Read-only from user space
+```
+
+---
+
+## Framework Integrations
+
+Wrap existing frameworks with Agent OS governance:
+
+```python
+# LangChain
+from agent_os.integrations import LangChainKernel
+governed = LangChainKernel().wrap(my_chain)
+
+# OpenAI Assistants
+from agent_os.integrations import OpenAIKernel
+governed = OpenAIKernel().wrap_assistant(assistant, client)
+
+# Semantic Kernel
+from agent_os.integrations import SemanticKernelWrapper
+governed = SemanticKernelWrapper().wrap(sk_kernel)
+
+# CrewAI
+from agent_os.integrations import CrewAIKernel
+governed = CrewAIKernel().wrap(my_crew)
+```
+
+See [integrations documentation](docs/integrations.md) for full details.
+
+---
+
+## How It Differs from Other Tools
+
+**Agent Frameworks** (LangChain, CrewAI): Build agents. Agent OS governs them. Use together.
+
+**Safety Tools** (NeMo Guardrails, LlamaGuard): Input/output filtering. Agent OS intercepts actions mid-execution.
+
+| Tool | Focus | When it acts |
+|------|-------|--------------|
+| LangChain/CrewAI | Building agents | N/A (framework) |
+| NeMo Guardrails | Input/output filtering | Before/after LLM call |
+| LlamaGuard | Content classification | Before/after LLM call |
+| **Agent OS** | Action interception | During execution |
+
+You can use them together:
+
+```python
+from langchain.agents import AgentExecutor
+from agent_os import KernelSpace
+
+kernel = KernelSpace(policy="strict")
+
+@kernel.govern
+async def my_langchain_agent(task: str):
+    return agent_executor.invoke({"input": task})
+```
+
+---
+

+
+---
+
+## Safe Tool Plugins
+
+Agent OS includes pre-built safe tools for agents:
+
+```python
+from atr.tools.safe import create_safe_toolkit
+
+toolkit = create_safe_toolkit("standard")
+
+# Available tools
+http = toolkit["http"]        # Rate-limited HTTP with domain whitelisting
+files = toolkit["files"]      # Sandboxed file reader
+calc = toolkit["calculator"]  # Safe math (no eval)
+json = toolkit["json"]        # Safe JSON/YAML parsing
+dt = toolkit["datetime"]      # Timezone-aware datetime
+text = toolkit["text"]        # Text processing
+
+# Use a tool
+result = await http.get("https://api.github.com/users/octocat")
+```
+
+See [Creating Custom Tools](docs/tutorials/custom-tools.md) for more.
+
+---
+
+## Message Bus Adapters
+
+Connect agents using various message brokers:
+
+```python
+from amb_core.adapters import RedisBroker, KafkaBroker, NATSBroker
+
+# Redis (low latency)
+broker = RedisBroker(url="redis://localhost:6379")
+
+# Kafka (high throughput)
+broker = KafkaBroker(bootstrap_servers="localhost:9092")
+
+# NATS (cloud-native)
+broker = NATSBroker(servers=["nats://localhost:4222"])
+
+# Also: AzureServiceBusBroker, AWSSQSBroker

+## Status
+
+This is a research project exploring kernel concepts for AI agent governance. The code is functional but evolving.
+
+### Core (Production-Ready)
+The minimal trust boundary that's small enough to audit:
+- **Policy Engine**: Deterministic rule enforcement for defined patterns
+- **Flight Recorder**: SQLite-based audit logging (see known limitations below)
+- **SDK Adapters**: Intercept tool calls at SDK boundary (OpenAI, LangChain, CrewAI)
+
+### Extensions (Experimental)
+Additional capabilities built on the core:
+- Cross-model verification (CMVK), Inter-agent trust (IATP)
+- Supervisor agents, Constraint graphs, Shadow mode
+- IDE extensions (VS Code, JetBrains, Copilot)
+- Observability (Prometheus, OpenTelemetry)
+- Message bus adapters (Redis, Kafka, NATS)
+
+### Known Architectural Limitations
+Be aware of these design constraints:
+
+| Limitation | Impact | Mitigation |
+|------------|--------|------------|
+| **Application-level only** | Direct stdlib calls (subprocess, open) bypass kernel | Pair with container isolation for production |
+| **Blocklist-based policies** | Novel attack patterns not in rules will pass | Add AST-level parsing (#32), use defense in depth |
+| **Shadow Mode single-step** | Multi-step agent simulations diverge from reality | Use for single-turn validation only |
+| **No tamper-proof audit** | Flight Recorder SQLite can be modified by compromised agent | Write to external sink for critical audits |
+| **Provider-coupled adapters** | Each SDK needs separate adapter | Abstract interface planned (#47) |
+
+See [GitHub Issues](https://github.com/imran-siddique/agent-os/issues) for the full roadmap.
+- Some integrations are basic wrappers

+## Troubleshooting
+
+### Common Issues
+
+**ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'agent_os'**
+```bash
+# Install from source
+git clone https://github.com/imran-siddique/agent-os.git
+cd agent-os
+pip install -e .
+```
+
+**Permission errors on Windows**
+```bash
+# Run PowerShell as Administrator, or use --user flag
+pip install --user -e .
+```
+
+**Docker not working**
+```bash
+# Build with Dockerfile (no Docker Compose needed for simple tests)
+docker build -t agent-os .
+docker run -it agent-os python examples/hello-world/agent.py
+```
+
+**Tests failing with API errors**
+```bash
+# Most tests work without API keys - mock mode is default
+pytest tests/ -v
+
+# For real LLM tests, set environment variables
+export OPENAI_API_KEY=sk-...
+export ANTHROPIC_API_KEY=sk-ant-...
+```
