What is Skorpion OS

Linux reinvented
with AI as an assistant

Skorpion OS was born from a simple but ambitious idea: artificial intelligence should not be a separate tool, but act as your butler: it works with you, never in your place, and makes everyday tasks simpler.


Every application, every terminal, every search — once the project is complete, everything will communicate with a single local AI model based on Ollama, without sending data to external servers. Your privacy and your data remain untouched on your PC.


The project is developed by Enrico Miot (EndrX), with the vision of creating an OS that teaches beginners and empowers experts.

What makes
Skorpion OS different

Integrated but removable AI

Artificial intelligence is an integral part of the system but can also be removed with a single click.

Plugins for every app

Dedicated plugins for text editors, browsers and the terminal. Every tool designed for its purpose.

100% Local & Private

All AI processing runs on your hardware via Ollama: your prompts and files never leave your computer. DuckDuckGo is used only to search the web, never for AI processing.

Conversational Experience

Talk to your OS in natural language, as if you were speaking with an expert always at hand.

Based on Debian

Solid foundations with Debian Linux. Stable, compatible and with a vast package ecosystem.

Open Source

Open and modifiable code. Contribute, customize, or adapt Skorpion OS to your needs.

AI Integration

Apps enhanced
by intelligence

Text editor — autocorrects, summarizes, generates text from your ideas. Like having a co-writer always available.


AI Browser — a search engine that understands natural language, uses DuckDuckGo only to search the web — the AI processing of the results stays on your PC — and returns contextual results.


Smart file manager — type in natural language what you want to do in the terminal. The AI translates it into commands, asks for confirmation and creates/moves files and folders.

Shared Memory In development

A single model
for the entire system

The goal of Skorpion OS is a centralized AI model with persistent memory shared across all applications. The single local model is already here; memory shared between apps is in development.


When you write a fantasy novel in LibreOffice, the browser will already "know" what your document is about. When you need to search for information related to the book, the model will already have the full context of the entire book.


Every interaction will enrich the context. The model will evolve with you, adapting to your habits and needs.

How it will work In development

The context that
flows across apps

See how SKAI's shared memory will transform your everyday experience.

01

Write a novel

You're working on a fantasy novel with wizards and spells in LibreOffice Writer. SKAI will memorize the document's context.

02

Switch to the browser

Open Firefox and ask the SKAI extension: "Find me information about the novel" — without specifying anything else.

03

Contextual results

SKAI will understand you're talking about fantasy magic thanks to shared memory, and bring you relevant sources integrated into the page.

Who it's for

Suitable for everyone,
tailored for each one

Beginner

New to Linux?

No worries. Skorpion OS guides you step by step. You can write what you want to do in natural language and the AI works with you: it shows you how to do it, explains every step and asks before acting.

Expert

Already experienced?

Skorpion OS won't slow you down. You have full access to the system, can bypass the AI whenever you want, and use it as an accelerator for repetitive tasks or quick documentation.

System Requirements

Minimum hardware

Skorpion OS is designed to run on modern hardware. The local AI model requires adequate resources. During setup you can choose a smaller model than the recommended one: the values below are the minimum for the smallest model. The recommended model (qwen2.5:14b) needs more resources.

CPU

4+ cores
x86_64, Intel/AMD with AVX2

RAM

8 GB min
16 GB for the recommended model

GPU

4 GB VRAM
NVIDIA + CUDA 11+ (recommended)

Storage

20 GB+
System + smallest AI model

Architecture

64-bit
64-bit systems only

Internet

First boot
To download Ollama and the model; then only for updates and web search
Installation

From zero to
Skorpion OS

Follow these steps to install Skorpion OS on your computer.

01

Download the ISO

Download the Skorpion OS ISO image — Lite (i3) or Cinnamon — from the official repository on SourceForge.

02

Create the bootable USB

Write the ISO to a USB drive with dd, Rufus, or Ventoy.

03

Boot in Live mode

Insert the USB drive, enter the BIOS/UEFI and set the boot from USB. Skorpion OS will start in live mode from the USB.

04

Install with Calamares

Launch the Calamares graphical installer via the launcher and configure the system through the setup wizard, or test it without deleting your files.

05

First boot

Remove the USB drive and reboot. On the first boot, the SKAI wizard will launch, install Ollama and let you choose and download the AI model (internet connection required).

06

Update the system

After the first boot run in the terminal sudo apt update && sudo apt upgrade — or ask SKAI how to update.

PN LUG — Pordenone Linux User Group

Every Tuesday evening you can find Enrico at the Pordenone Linux User Group for direct support, questions and conversations about Skorpion OS and Linux.

"This operating system is constantly evolving. I would be very happy if more people joined the project."

Like most successful projects, it requires building a team of developers, not a single developer. I'm waiting for you.
