Skorpion OS
A Debian-based Linux distribution with integrated local AI — built for privacy and full control.
What is Skorpion OS?
Skorpion OS is a custom GNU/Linux distribution built on top of Debian, designed around a single core idea: AI should run locally, on your hardware, under your control.
No cloud. No telemetry. No subscriptions. Just raw computing power with an intelligent layer baked right in.
The distro combines two clean, environments (i3 WM and Cinnamon DE) with deep AI integration through Ollama, giving you an AI assistant that never call on the internet.
Key Features
- SKAI — Integrated local AI subsystem powered by Ollama
- SkAifox Extension — Browser-integrated AI that talks to your local model
- skai — Natural language file manager agent (CLI-based, LLM-powered)
- sk_suite — Mail, Notes and Calendar managed by ai
- kitty terminal — Terminal emulator
- Debian Trixie base — Stable, up-to-date, and familiar
- Privacy-first — No external AI calls by default; all inference runs on-device
System Requirements
| Component | Minimum | Recommended |
|---|---|---|
| CPU | x86_64, 4+ cores, Intel/AMD with AVX2 | 8+ cores |
| RAM | 8 GB | 16 GB (for LLM inference) |
| GPU | 4 GB VRAM | NVIDIA + CUDA 11+ |
| Storage | 20 GB (OS + base AI model) | 50+ GB |
| Architecture | 64-bit only | 64-bit only |
| Internet | Optional | Only for updates & model downloads |
SKAI — The AI Subsystem
SKAI is the brain of Skorpion OS. It exposes a local HTTP API (via Ollama) that all system components talk to — the Firefox extension, skai, and any custom apps.
skai — Natural Language File Manager
skai lets you manage your filesystem using plain English (or Italian):
$ skai "move all pdf's in ~/documents"
$ skai "find all files larger than 100MB and list them"
$ skai "delete temp files in /tmp older than 7 days"
skai interprets your intent using the local LLM and executes safe shell commands — no cloud required.
