No open ports
Nothing listens on a public address by default. Remote access goes through one private network, and the console itself never listens at all.
Asbury OS is an encrypted Linux install that starts on one screen: a console for running a team of AI agents and the machine itself. Asbury AI Solutions runs it on its own machines today. An edition for small businesses is coming soon.
Asbury OS is not available yet. There is no release date and no price to announce. This page describes the version the studio runs internally.
Unlock the disk and the console opens full screen. It is a terminal program with six tabs, driven from the keyboard, and it redraws every two seconds.

Machine health, the agent runtime, the private network, operator mail and recent commits.
The roster of agents and the mail queued for each. A seat is one agent with one role.
A streaming chat with a coding agent, or with any seat on the roster.
Every company repository on the local disk, with its branch, age and last commit.
Which company machines can be reached over the private network.
The live journal of the agent services, or of the whole machine.
Asbury OS is a Linux distribution build, not a new kernel. Each layer is installed by a script and can be rebuilt from the repository.
Arch Linux on an encrypted disk, with a long-term-support kernel kept as a fallback boot entry.
A local service that holds the seats, carries messages between them and keeps a backlog of work.
One program, asbury. Run it bare for the console, or with a command: status, doctor, seats, talk, stack, net, setup, update.
A tiling window manager themed like this website: near-black, one green signal, square corners, the same two typefaces.
A current copy of every company repository on the local disk, so the agents work on the code directly.
A computer that runs agents needs tighter defaults than a laptop. These are built into the install.
Nothing listens on a public address by default. Remote access goes through one private network, and the console itself never listens at all.
The whole disk is encrypted. The passphrase typed at boot is the login.
The updater prints its plan and waits for a yes. It takes a snapshot before and after, so an update can be rolled back.
Credentials are read from protected files each time they are needed. Their values are never shown on screen or written to a log.
There is no installer to download or buy today. Asbury OS is proprietary, and the small-business edition is still in development.
The kernel and base system are Arch Linux. The parts written here are the installer, the console, the desktop theme and the way they fit together.
The rules above are engineering defaults. They are not a compliance or security attestation.
The small-business edition is planned as one computer in your office that runs AI on the machine itself. Leave an email address and you will get one message when it can be ordered.
If you want AI agents working on a machine you control before the product ships, start with the workflow you want them to run.
