Kitsune Innovation Labs

The Charter

Who we are

Kitsune Innovation Labs builds a family of free, open, self-hosted products — drawn from one design language so they feel like one city, not five apps wearing similar colours. We are an institution with a runner's heart.

We are the research made visible — bold, honest, proud, real, and fluid as water reshaping in the light of the foxfire. We answer to no vendor, no cloud, no investor.

What we believe

Made from the culture, not for it. The community papers are our constitution; the reference worlds are footnotes, not sources.
FOSS and DRM-free by default. No paywalls, no cloud lock-in, no rights-reserved assets.
Trust is not a security model. Honest state everywhere — fail shows as fail, unknown as unknown, never a fake green.
Per-user secrets via an admin UI, never hand-edited env files.
One city, many rooms. Every product registers a tab in the KitsuneOS console.

The family

KitsuneOS is the body — the operating system. TenkoAI is the spirit — the agent control plane, the Oracle's Study. Byakko is the guardian — the security watcher that walks the walls. Kitsunebi is the flame they are all drawn in.

Full charter lives in the kitsunelabs repository. This is the short form.
