_{Agentic Nexus Operating Layer & Interface System Architecture}

The operating system layer for Agent workloads.

Let Agents drive the system straight from your terminal, and strip the tool responses that reach the model before they cost you — while keeping the Shell, Agent framework, and sandbox you already run.

中文版 · Website · Quick Start · User Guide · Contributing

ANOLISA is a server-side operating layer for AI Agent workloads. It addresses three practical constraints of Agent execution: terminal entry, Token cost, and execution environments. Keep the Shell, Agent framework, and sandbox you already use. ANOLISA CLI provides a single installation entry point, while each capability can be enabled independently.

Components

What it solves

01 · AGENT INTERFACE

Let the Agent work directly in the terminal

cosh-ng is an AI-native Linux terminal: it keeps familiar Bash/Zsh behavior, then adds an Agent that can understand intent, use tools and Skills, and ask for approval before risky work. Shell commands and natural language share one terminal instead of forcing users into a separate chat application.

02 · CONTEXT EFFICIENCY

See where Tokens go and cut waste before it reaches the model

Token-less removes redundancy from tool schemas and responses before they reach the model. Agent Memory reuses useful context across sessions. SkillFS keeps the current Skill view focused and makes other Skills discoverable when needed. AgentSight shows where Tokens are spent.

See an Agent run from the kernel up

On Linux, AgentSight uses eBPF to observe an Agent without changing its code. Follow user input through model and tool calls, with Token use and sub-agent branches in the same view.

Try Token-less with Claude Code in 3 minutes

Install Token-less and connect it to Claude Code:

curl -fsSL https://get.agentic-os.sh | bash
export PATH="$HOME/.local/bin:$PATH"
anolisa install tokenless
anolisa adapter enable tokenless claude-code

Restart Claude Code, run one tool-heavy task, then inspect the result:

tokenless stats summary
tokenless stats list --limit 5

_{In one observed coding task, Token-less saved 317K Tokens (40.5%), based on AgentSight measurements. Results vary by workload.}

debug and trace are dropped by the field blacklist, metadata as null, and tags / extra as empty values. Compression runs between the Agent and the model, so no Agent framework code changes. Dropped array items stay retrievable through a <<tokenless:KEY>> marker, which keeps the compression reversible.

Savings apply to the tool responses entering the context, not to the whole session bill. The Token-less user manual explains how to estimate the effect for a given workload.

03 · EXECUTION RUNTIME

Give every Agent execution a boundary and a way back

ANOLISA is building out the Agent execution environment: Agent Sec Core isolates risky operations, and ws-ckpt keeps recovery points for workspace changes.

Catch a changed Skill before it runs

When a signed Skill changes, the Agent reports drifted before using it again. A rescan records blocking findings as deny.

Install

ANOLISA CLI is the common installation entry point. cosh-ng is installed in system mode; Token-less and other capabilities can be added independently.

curl -fsSL https://get.agentic-os.sh | bash

sudo anolisa --install-mode system install cosh-ng
anolisa install tokenless

Run cosh to enter the AI-native terminal. Token-less can also optimize tool calls from an existing Agent without changing its framework.
