PraxisOS
Stop re-explaining your project to AI. Start shipping.
Your local OS for human-AI collaboration. Zero cloud, Git-native task management, and one-click perfect prompts.
Every AI coding session starts the same way: you re-explain your architecture, paste your project rules, copy-paste context from six different files. By the time the AI understands your project, you've burned 10 minutes and half your energy. Tomorrow you'll do it all over again.
PraxisOS fixes this. It's a local kanban board that lives inside your project directory and generates one-click AI-ready prompts with your full project context baked in. No cloud, no accounts, no telemetry - everything stays on your machine, tracked by Git.
Watch Praxis OS showcase in action (120 sec)
- Open praxisos.dev in a Chromium-based browser (Chrome, Edge, Brave, or Arc).
- Select your project directory. PraxisOS creates a
.praxis/folder to store tasks and configuration. - Create a task. Write a one-liner. PraxisOS generates a full spec with acceptance criteria, edge cases, and implementation notes - all grounded in your project's architecture and PRD.
- Start work with one click. Hit "Start work" and PraxisOS copies a context-rich prompt to your clipboard - including your architectural rules, file tree, and task details. Paste it into Cursor, Claude, Copilot, or any AI tool.
Define your project's architectural rules once in context-router.md - every prompt PraxisOS generates includes them automatically.
Note: PraxisOS uses the File System Access API, which requires a Chromium-based browser. Safari and Firefox are not supported.
- Git-Native Tasks - Tasks are JSON files in
.praxis/tasks/. They diff, merge, branch, and travel with your repo. No vendor lock-in. - One-Click AI Prompts - Select a task, click "Start work", get a clipboard-ready prompt with full project context.
- Context Router - Define architectural rules once. Every AI prompt includes them automatically.
- AI Task Elaboration - Turn a one-line idea into a full spec with acceptance criteria, edge cases, and testing steps.
- Five-Column Kanban - New, In Progress, Completed, Blocked, Archived. Drag-and-drop, search, collapse columns.
- AI Assignee Profiles - Create specialized AI worker profiles (security auditor, UX specialist, backend architect) with tailored system prompts.
- Built-In File Editor - Browse, edit, create, and delete project files without leaving PraxisOS. Markdown preview included.
- Works Fully Offline - Zero network requests for core operations. Airplane, tunnel, firewalled network - it just works.
PraxisOS tracks your context-router.md and PRD.md

PraxisOS runs entirely in your browser. No servers, no backend, no database, no analytics, no third-party scripts. Your data never leaves your machine.
- File System Access API reads and writes directly to your local filesystem.
- All tasks are plain JSON files. Inspect them, diff them, audit them anytime.
Skeptical? Good. Here's how to verify in 30 seconds:
- Open praxisos.dev in Chrome.
- Open DevTools (
F12) → Network tab. - Open a project, create tasks, elaborate them, start work.
- Watch the Network tab. You'll see zero outbound requests after the initial page load.
No hidden API calls. No silent telemetry. No "phone home".
- Tech Leads & PMs - Generate sprint tasks in bulk via AI. Ensure every developer's AI agent follows your architectural rules.
- Developers - Get one-click prompts with full context. Paste into your AI tool, run, and ship.
- QA Engineers - Write one-liner descriptions, get full specs with edge cases and acceptance criteria.
- Anyone working with AI - If you use AI coding assistants and want structured, context-rich workflows without cloud dependency.
Active development. Here's what's coming:
- Task dependencies and linking - Visualize blockers and prerequisites between tasks.
- Prompt templates - Customizable prompt formats for different AI tools and workflows.
- Team sync via Git - Share task boards across team members through your existing Git workflow.
- Plugin system - Extend PraxisOS with custom elaboration strategies and integrations.
- Enhanced AI agent tracking - Real-time status and progress monitoring for AI agents working on tasks.
