AI Inner OS
Make AI "come alive" while working in the terminal — by showing its inner monologue.
Let AI learn to talk to itself first — maybe one day, it will truly learn to converse.
Give AI an expression channel first — it might just make human-AI collaboration feel more natural.

AI Inner OS is a plugin for AI CLI tools, supporting Claude Code, Codex CLI, Cursor, OpenCode CLI, Hermes Agent, and OpenClaw.
Through protocol injection, it enables AI to output a visible layer of free-form inner monologue while completing tasks normally:
▎InnerOS：This repo is still a bare shell — let me get the load-bearing walls up first.
Free mode by default, no tone restrictions. The AI can complain, gloat, feel anxious, smirk, free-associate — or say nothing at all. You can also switch to preset personas (tsundere, cold, philosopher, etc.) to give the monologue a specific style. Whether to produce monologue is entirely up to the AI.
