BlackRoad OS Phase 2 Scaffold

This PR implements the complete Phase 2 scaffold for BlackRoad OS, creating minimal working skeletons for all 6 core modules.

🎯 Overview

This scaffold creates the foundation for the BlackRoad OS ecosystem with clean separation of concerns and modular architecture. All components are production-ready skeletons that can be enhanced or extracted into separate repositories.

📦 New Modules

1. Backend API Enhancements ✅

Location: backend/app/routers/system.py

• New system router with 3 endpoints:
  • GET /api/system/version - System version and build info
  • GET /api/system/config/public - Public configuration
  • GET /api/system/os/state - OS state (stub, ready for Core OS integration)
• Integrated with main FastAPI app
• Full test coverage in backend/tests/test_system.py

2. Core OS Runtime ✅

Location: core_os/

• Complete state management system:
  • UserSession - User session tracking
  • Window - Application window management
  • OSState - Complete OS state model
• State management functions (open_window, close_window, minimize_window, etc.)
• Backend API adapter for communication
• Comprehensive test suite (15+ tests)
• README with usage examples

3. Operator Engine ✅

Location: operator_engine/

• Job scheduling and orchestration:
  • In-memory job registry with 3 example jobs
  • Simple interval-based scheduler
  • Job lifecycle management (pending, running, completed, failed)
  • Optional HTTP server on port 8001
• Complete test coverage
• README with API documentation

4. Web Client (Pocket OS) ✅

Location: backend/static/js/core-os-client.js, web-client/README.md

• New CoreOSClient JavaScript class
• Integration with system endpoints
• Event-driven architecture
• Usage:

  await window.coreOS.initialize();
  const version = await window.coreOS.getVersion();
  

5. Prism Console ✅

Location: prism-console/

• Modern dark-themed admin UI
• 5 navigation tabs:
  • Overview - System metrics dashboard
  • Jobs - Job management (ready for Operator integration)
  • Agents - Agent library browser
  • Logs - Log viewer
  • System - Configuration display
• Auto-refresh every 30 seconds
• Fully standalone (can run on port 8080)

6. Documentation (Codex) ✅

Location: codex-docs/

• Complete MkDocs-based documentation:
  • Architecture guides
  • Component documentation
  • Infrastructure setup
  • API reference
• Material theme with dark mode
• Ready to deploy to GitHub Pages

🔄 CI/CD

Added 3 new GitHub Actions workflows:

• .github/workflows/core-os-tests.yml - Core OS test suite
• .github/workflows/operator-tests.yml - Operator Engine tests
• .github/workflows/docs-build.yml - Documentation build validation

📊 Statistics

• Files Created: 38
• Lines of Code: ~4,400
• Test Files: 5
• Test Cases: 15+
• CI Workflows: 3 new
• Documentation Pages: 10+
• Modules: 6 core components

🚀 How to Test

Backend API

cd backend
uvicorn app.main:app --reload
# Visit http://localhost:8000/api/docs
# Test new endpoints: /api/system/version, /api/system/config/public

Core OS Runtime

pytest core_os/tests/ -v
# Or use interactively:
python -c "from core_os import get_initial_state; print(get_initial_state().to_dict())"

Operator Engine

pytest operator_engine/tests/ -v
# Or run as service:
python -m operator_engine.server
# Visit http://localhost:8001/docs

Web Client

cd backend && uvicorn app.main:app --reload
# Visit http://localhost:8000/
# Open browser console, run: await window.coreOS.initialize()

Prism Console

cd prism-console
python -m http.server 8080
# Visit http://localhost:8080/

Documentation

cd codex-docs
pip install mkdocs mkdocs-material mkdocstrings
mkdocs serve
# Visit http://localhost:8000

📚 Documentation

All new modules include:

• ✅ Detailed README with examples
• ✅ Architecture documentation
• ✅ Integration guides
• ✅ Testing instructions
• ✅ How to run locally

See BLACKROAD_OS_REPO_MAP.md for complete cross-reference.

✅ Checklist

• Backend API enhanced with system endpoints
• Core OS Runtime implemented and tested
• Operator Engine created with job management
• Web Client enhanced with CoreOSClient
• Prism Console UI created
• Documentation (Codex) scaffolded with MkDocs
• CI workflows added for all modules

🎯 Next Steps (Post-Merge)

1. Deploy to Railway and test in production
2. Integrate Core OS Runtime with Backend API
3. Add Prism route to backend (serve at /prism)
4. Implement real-time WebSocket for OS state sync
5. Connect Operator Engine to background tasks
6. Deploy Codex to GitHub Pages

📝 Breaking Changes

None - this is purely additive. All existing functionality is preserved.
