Kalyx OS

A high-performance, AI-accelerated Linux distribution built on top of the Ubuntu LTS kernel foundation. Engineered for developers, AI researchers, cybersecurity professionals, and enterprises that need a clean, GPU-optimized system without manual driver or environment setup.

Purpose

Kalyx OS eliminates the usual friction in Linux AI development. Most distros require manual GPU configuration, CUDA setup, broken package conflicts, and environment tuning. Kalyx ships with a unified NVIDIA driver + CUDA stack and an optimized AI toolchain so the system is fully ready for machine learning frameworks, LLMs, and agent runtimes immediately after install. The environment is hardened for reliability, security, and long-term maintainability.

Core Features

Integrated NVIDIA GPU Stack

Pre-configured NVIDIA drivers, CUDA, and cuDNN. No manual setup required—GPU acceleration works out of the box for machine learning workloads.

Optimized AI/ML Toolchain

Complete environment with PyTorch, TensorFlow, vLLM, transformers, and CUDA-enabled Python. Ready for LLM inference, fine-tuning, and agent development.

Agent-Centric Runtime Layer

Built-in memory indexing, vector store, event system, and NeuroMesh/CoreMind orchestration runtime for building autonomous AI agents and multi-agent systems.

Developer-First Environment

Ships with Docker, Podman, VS Code, Git, Node, Python, and Go. Everything a modern developer needs for full-stack AI development.

Security & Pentesting Tools

HaloX scanner support, Nmap, and forensics utilities for cybersecurity research and red-team automation workflows.

Modern Desktop Environment

GNOME desktop with custom Kalyx theme, wallpapers, and tuned shell extensions for a polished, productive user experience.
