Link-U OS (AgiBot Lingqu OS)

灵渠 OS（智元具身操作系统）Advanced

AgiBot's operating system for embodied robots, with plans to open-source it in stages.

Link-U OS (灵渠 OS) is an operating system for embodied robots from AgiBot (智元机器人), reportedly unveiled along with an open-source roadmap at the 2025 World Artificial Intelligence Conference. According to public descriptions, it follows a layered design: the lower layer handles hardware abstraction and real-time communication (related to AimRT, AgiBot's previously open-sourced robot runtime framework), while the upper layer connects to embodied large models, skills, and applications, aiming to let different robot bodies and different models run on one shared software foundation, cutting down the cost of custom development and porting between robot bodies. It occupies a similar space to ROS 2 and RoboOS; the exact scope and timeline of what gets open-sourced is best confirmed against AgiBot's official announcements.
