DOS — the trust substrate for agent fleets

Overview

DOS is a trust substrate for agent fleets that runs as a Model Context Protocol server. It verifies what agents actually shipped, arbitrates file collisions, and refuses requests with structured reasons—giving your AI assistants callable tools for agent coordination instead of manual handoffs.

The server runs locally via the Python package dos-kernel, installed with uvx dos-kernel. It requires no authentication and works out of the box over stdio. The current release is v0.30.0, published under the MIT license. Source code is available at anthony-chaudhary/dos-kernel on GitHub, where the project has 19 stars.

DOS belongs in the AI & Agents category on mcp.site and integrates with any MCP client including Claude Desktop, Claude Code, Cursor, VS Code, Windsurf, and Zed. If you maintain DOS for anthony-chaudhary, claim this listing to verify ownership and keep the information current.
